[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 379361, member: 1991"] There are strict definitions for legal blindness. From what I recall, if your CORRECTED vision is still so bad that you can't read the top letter on the eye chart, you're legally blind. I remember also with loss of peripheral vision, if your world looks like you're looking through a drinking straw, you're legally blind. Not sure how bad macula problems have to be. If you Google "legally blind" you might find out. If you really want to know... I wanted to know because I stopped being able to read the top letter on the eye chart while I was still at school. Of course, I can read it with glasses on. But I spent my first few years not realising how bad my eyesight was. Glasses opened up my world. Marg [/QUOTE]
