I have poor vision too. I don’t think there is any way to increase the cursor size besides sitting closer to the TV. I’m 2 feet away and sometimes still need to squint. If I change the UI Scaling all the windows get too large but the content doesn’t change size. I set the Font Size to Large but the difference is minimal. The only places where font makes a difference is in the social widows ( mail, Local, Corp… ) Looks like one requirement to play EvE is to have 20/20 vision… or sit literally glued to the tv. ---

bumped this into [Player Features & Ideas - EVE Online Forums](https://forums.eveonline.com/c/technology-research/player-features-ideas/74) – you likely would want to adjust the mouse size in your operating system as its not a feature today that I’m aware of. ---

I’m just linking this prior thread on the subject for the sake of the additional context and history as to how this was discussed or dealt with from 2017, spanning all the way up to 2023. > [@\[PROPOSAL\] Mouse Cursor Size Scaling](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/proposal-mouse-cursor-size-scaling/16333): > > I use my 4k Ultra HD TV as my computer monitor. Eve graphics are awesome! However, the mouse cursor is very tiny and light colored, so it is hard to see against some backgrounds (like if the camera is pointing toward a sun). I have tried using UI Scaling, which adjusts the size of windows, fonts, etc. Everything EXCEPT the mouse cursor gets enlarged. GMs have told me the mouse cursor size cannot be adjusted as it is hard-coded. We need a way to adjust the size of the mouse cursor. Either have… ---
