Yep, it happens. I took a fall getting out of a bus today (driver parked far away from the curb and I didn’t notice)

I once ran into a handicap parking sign.

Yeah happens. I’ve walked into at least three doors, plus sent myself to the ER right after losing my sight cause I hit a wall hard enough to knock myself out for a second.

Hazzah! Congratulations on joining the club :-)

But for real… The Apple store doors are my arch nemesis lol

While using a cane?

Lol I've ran in to a few glass doors, myself!
They had no dicernable border or feature, and the dumb handle blended in with the carpet they had behind it, so I almost broke their door, lol
That's why I use my cane much more often now. Keeps things like that from happening, hahaha.
Glad you're alright though!

I've walked into a few in my time. It's such a shock...so abrupt, loud, and confusing. I've never felt as much like a primal, scared animal as the first few seconds after I walked into an invisible barrier. I would compare it to being in a car wreck.

...I am not visually impaired. Glass is tricksy.

I've got enough vision to kind of tell what's in (some) vending machines. Unfortunately I don't have enough vision to notice the glass and bounce off it 9/10 times. No applause from onlookers yet.

Knock on wood but I’ve never had the pleasure to do that quite yet but I do take out everyone’s screen doors like no ones business!!!

I did that once in college. Door was usually kept open except for the one time it wasn't. Wasn't paying attention & bumped right into it. Often happens when I'm accustomed to going through open doors & then the door is no longer kept open.

Full glass doors catch their share of fully sighted people too (some are distracted on on phones, some just didn't look in the right place to see hidden hinges or something). My science teacher in high school knocked himself out on one.

one time at work, i ran into a full metal door and almost broke my nose. (it was in my non existent peripheral and my depth perception of where i thought it was completely messed me up).

I was in the Microsoft building in NYC years ago and I felt like a trapped bird. It was all glass, the walls and doors and everything, and they must have cleaned it all the time, too...

Apple Store, me. In front of lots of people. Left a nose oil mark on the glass. Partner laughed.

Ouch. Yea fam I've done that before. It wasnt to bad was it? I've heard horror stories of nose breakers.

Actually this happens to normal folks too.

I remember reading an article about Apple employees putting sticky notes on the glass doors of the corporate office to distinguish glass doors from glass walls

I just want to thank you all for sharing your stories. Today was a rough vision day, so I needed a giggle

Also, there's a dent in my best friend's bedroom wall that matches my head... it was my first time there and pre-cane I wasn't orientated yet

Since it is extremely common for people going blind to refuse to use one, I gotta say: This to me sounds like a really good hint that you should start to use a white cane. I know it may feel embarrassing to do so because society is fucking ableist and we all internalise that too well, but running into doors is embarrassing too, as well as painful and potentially quite harmful if the glass breaks.
I cannot promise you will never run into things (or people!) with a cane — it also depends on your technique, attention, and height of the obstacle — but I promise it will happen much less often.

I was walking full speed years back and rammed into a divider between 2 glass doors. lol. It really hurt and I just kept walking like nothing happened.

My last office was full of glass. It was bound to happen.

Halloween everyone was in the break room celebrating. I walked full speed into the glass doors on my way to the bathroom.

I hit it so hard the door reverberated in the wall. Seriously wondered if the glass would shatter.

The worst part? No one in the room even laughed. Three people gasped. There was at least 20 people in the room and everyone just stared.

Thank god it was Halloween. The huge lump on my forehead went well with my zombie costume that night.

Ugh, it's happened to me. It wasn't even a full glass door. Broke my glasses cut myself. It was a mess. I lived. Good luck to you!
