  • My dad has a progressive disease and is struggling with using a mouse. Eventually he may need eye or tongue controls but I don't think he's emotionally ready for that yet. For now he'd just like an easier way to press his mouse buttons (and not press them when he doesn't intend to).

    Ideal would be something like a mouse with no buttons (or disabled buttons) with a separate button pad.

    I was wondering about the Elgato Stream Deck so I can add more functions to the buttons as he becomes less able. Someone also suggested the Microsoft Adaptable Controller for the xbox but I'm not sure if it works as a mouse outside a game.

    Anyone used either of these? I'm leaning to the Stream Deck because even if I have to replace the mouse entirely the buttons will probably still be useful for him.

  • Might a trackball be an option?

    Realise that's a very different thing to a mouse which may be difficult, but it does separate the movement and buttons.
