One of the main things I discuss in this blog is living with a visual impairment. I want to show that my eye conditions aren’t a barrier to living my life, while discussing other relevant issues as well. I also link to a lot of great material by other visually impaired and disabled people too. So if there’s anything you want me to post about, questions you want to ask, or links you can recommend, do contact me.
