Here in the U.K. those who work can claim funding from the government for
adaptive technology which is required for work purposes.
I am fortunate to have a Braille display at home and work from this source.

You can also find them used at quite reasonable prices.

My question is, how do blind people afford Braille displays?  They cost so 
much money!
