I've recently become a proponent of Atkinson Hyperlegible (while discovering I have some vision issues). Not sure if it's appropriate in your industry, but the improvements to accessibility are hard to argue with.
Our designs have to comply with ADA, so accessibility is definitely a familiar consideration. This looks like any other professional looking sans-serif font, so if it's more accessible for low vision/vision impaired people, all the better! I like that uppercase i and lowercase L are distinguishable, which is a personal peeve I have with some sans serif fonts. Thanks for the suggestion!
It's hard to explain exactly why but switching my ereader over made a night and day difference in my comprehension and reading speed.
Out of curiosity, what font were you using before?
