Advice on lighting choice for semi-blind person.

whjohnson

Got a bathroom to redo to achieve better lighting.

Bathroom is square with an area the length of a standard bath - something like 2 to 2.5 metres square.

Customer has poor vision/eyesight so conventional light fittings, especially the 13w LED ‘flying saucer’ style such as Ansell Discos just won't given enough illumination, so am calling upon the expert advece and experience here to suggest some better lighting options. Downlights are out due to cost and very limited loft access, so better to stick with existing lighting position and   just change the fitting.

Any pointers would be most welcome.

    Sometimes lighting at low level can be helpful. LED  rope light at floor level around the base of the bath and WC for example. And perhaps around the room perimeter.

    SELV and enclosed rope lighting, not LED tape which is vulnerable to damage. Green often works best.

    I installed LED rope lighting along both sides of the stairs for my late Mother.
