Visually Impaired and Blind (VIB)

Visually Impaired and Blind (VIB) refers to a range of visual disabilities that affect a person’s ability to see clearly or at all. "Visually impaired" includes individuals with partial sight loss, such as reduced vision or difficulty seeing in certain conditions. "Blind" generally indicates a complete lack of sight or very limited vision that cannot be corrected with glasses. These conditions can be caused by injury, disease, or congenital factors. VIB individuals may use various adaptations, such as Braille, assistive technologies, or mobility tools, to navigate and access information effectively.
