Need 2 different keyboards for impaired

I am shopping for two keyboards for friends. One has carpal tunnel but
doesn't like the segmented, upright, whacked-out kind. She needs to look
while typing.

Second keyboard needed is for a blind person with limited sensitivity in his
hands. I have no clue what is available and neither does he. Any suggestions
are welcome.

-thanks!

My Logitech Navigator / Elite lays flat rather than being on a slope and is
supposed to help.

Also, using a keyboard layout such as dvorak is likely to help too... when
you start learning it you're slow which aids recovery and then when you're
using it, there are far fewer finger movements. You don't need a special
keyboard to do it either, just change the keyboard layout in the control
panel (and learn to touch type!)

Limited how? If his limitation only extends to either pressure or touch you
may be able to take further advantage of the other one. Not sure what is
available either.

Good luck.
