Greetings Jim

Within FreeBSD there are included the following port that deal with visually 
impaired persons;
"Gnopernicus"

Gnopernicus provides Assistive Technologies (AT) for blind and visually
impaired persons through modules for text-to-speech, braille, etc.

 It is a screen reader and magnifier and it enables users with limited 
vision, or no vision,

For more information about this port see the web site of the project
