Or, you can just not touch the screen..

I am legally blind, so I have to get close to the screen in order to properly see it. So accidental touches can sometimes occur.

I see, that makes sense, a very rare occurrence that is not understandable without knowing context that you are legally blind..

Normally, touch signals and video signals use different wires, so I am positive that you will be able to disable touch on hardware level.
