Teaching a visually impaired design student

Next semester I will have a visually impaired student in the design studio I teach. Looking for advice / experience on the subject.

I'm part of the teaching team of a third semester studio of the Design program of a university in Chile. Next semester, we will have a female student who is nearly blind.

This is not such an issue as our studio is not about making things that look nice, but rather applying design thinking to questions of identity, and is not limited to visual aspects. Also the studio work is done in teams.

My question is: is there anything specific I should do or not do? I'd especially love to hear any relevant experience.
