Yes, it is absolutely possible. Prior to my retirement, I taught braille to
many clients who were seniors. Also, hadley institute for blind and
visually impaired offers free correspondence courses to help u learn
braille. Good luck and if I can be of any more help, yell.

Subject: Braille for seniors?!
Is it possible for someone over the age of 65 to learn braille?
Exploring the accessibility features of my new iPhone, I chanced upon the
Braille entry option on the rotor. I tried using it and was amazed at how
quickly I could start typing in Braille! It was also fun and fast!
Therefore my question-can someone over the age of 65 learn to read Braille?
I know that with practice I could learn to type in Braille.
But reading braille?? Learning to interpret those raised dots into alphabets
at a reasonably fast speed! Is it possible for me?
If yes, how should I go about doing it?
Should I be buying a refreshable Braille display?
Help, guidance or any indication about this would be wonderful!
K
P.S. I am actually many years over 65! But ladies are not supposed to give
their age :-)
