Remember: Blindness is a spectrum.
#WorldSightDay #Accessibility #BlindNewWorld
On #WorldSightDay, remember that each person living with blindness experiences it a different way: different levels of vision, different ways to navigate, different tools to live safely and confidently.

🧠 Vision happens in the brain, not just the eyes.
Cerebral Visual Impairment (#CVI) is the leading cause of pediatric visual impairment, where the brain struggles to process what the eyes see.
This #CVIAwarenessMonth, help us make the invisible visible. Learn the signs.💙
How is it possible to be blind and undiagnosed? 🤔 CVI is a brain-based form of #Blindness that often goes undiagnosed because routine screenings don’t assess for it. Too many kids with CVI are left without support. #CVIAwarenessMonth is almost here and kids with CVI can't wait.
