Unable to drive to job

I am a type 1 diabetic of 45 years with diabetic retinopathy. My vision has been on a downward spiral the last 2-3 years and my opthalmologist told me I should no longer drive. When I told my employer I couldn't drive to work, they would hear nothing of it. I told them I have no access to public transportation in my area and they suggested I take Uber. This would cost me $48 each way. I can't afford this, what are my options? Can I request a reasonable accommodation to work remote under the ADA?
