Large Print Graphics for Older Eyes?

random_nickname asks: "My lovely wife is a Graphic Designer with a small company which specializes in custom-made wine labels. She is re-designing the current site, to bring the code up-to-date and a little more shnazzy. Her boss is insisting that, due to their primary market - the elderly - she needs to create overly 'large-print' graphics, to make the site easier to browse for that demographic. My wife feels that this is unnecessary due to resolution control and monitor sizes, etc.. Are there sites out there that currently employ over-sized graphics for the elderly and has it made a difference in business? Is there a real need for this kind of solution?"

Oh, BTW don't be put off by the cover artwork of Building Accessible Websites [amazon.com], even though it does bear a remarkably similarity to a certain infamous Mr/Mrs Goatse.cx [no link for obvious reasons] picture!!
