Hello- I’m not really sure where to start but I am trying to process everything. 4 years ago I was diagnosed as a late onset Type 1 diabetic (that’s another group - I know). I’m 41 and The last 4 years have not been kind- my health has declined terribly and my sight has slowly slipped further and further away. I’ve had glasses since I was 6 so I’ve grown accustomed to wearing glasses and having a changing prescription- this is definitely not like that. In November my eye doctor sent me to a retinal specialist and there I was diagnosed as legally blind and told my vision is worse than 20/400. I had cataracts so was sent to an eye surgeon for that and just had one eye done without much relief- the other eye is scheduled for the 29th because why not.. next week I’m having a brain MRI and also am scheduled to see a neuro-ophthalmologist to see if I have optic nerve damage.. in the meantime I’m stuck trying to figure out am I visually impaired, blind, or both and trying to learn how to navigate this new way of life.. I do have some sight but it is not good. I’m getting a white cane soon because I cannot see well enough to know where curbs start or end or where stairs are... if you’ve read this far through my post any guidance you can offer I’d greatly appreciate- I feel so lost
