    Abstract: Profile data associated with a user of a device is configured. The profile data indicates a condition of the user associated with a visual impairment. Image data associated with an object including visual information displayed thereon is captured. The image data is displayed in a display associated with the device. A frustration level associated with the user is evaluated. The frustration level is indicative of the user viewing the image data in the display. Whether an enhancement condition has been met is determined based upon the condition of the user and whether the frustration level has exceeded a threshold value. Responsive to determining that the at least one enhancement condition has been met, the image data is converted to enhanced image data. The enhanced image data includes an increased readability of the visual information displayed on the object.
