Chapter 1 Taking Action After Vision Loss. What Do I Do Now?
You may have recently heard the words, "You are losing your vision, and there is nothing we can do about it," or you have already experienced the reality of permanent vision loss. I understand that losing something you have depended upon you whole life has just been taken away from you, and you are more than likely expected to keep on functioning like everything is normal, visible, and intelligible.
But you can't see, you don't feel normal, and many things are no longer understandable like they were when you could see them. It can be a devastating realization that you wish would just go away, but in all probability, it isn't going to go away.
There are several states you will probably go through as you adjust to your blindness. In the support groups they talk about these stages frequently. You will almost always experience some or all of these stages.
