Hemianopia Add-on for Firefox!

Believe it or not, there's a hemianopia add-on for Mozilla's excellent Firefox web browser. Hemianopia can sometimes cause problems finding the beginning of a line of text, so this add-on draws a vertical line on your Firefox web browser. By clicking and dragging, you can position it wherever is most helpful for your web page.  By double-clicking you can change it's colour or switch it off.  I'd be very interested to know how whether it's helpful.

The link is here: Firefox Hemianopia Add-on.
To get the Firefox browser, click This Link.

The add-on is produced by the Yahoo! Accessibility Lab.
