I often find it challenging to explain what my world looks like to those who see differently. Visual impairments are hard to put into words, so I thought I’d share a side-by-side comparison to give you a glimpse into my perspective.
In the first photo, you see an actual, clear image of the cityscape—a crisp view of buildings, trees, and distant mountains under a colorful sky. Every detail is in focus, and nothing is hidden in the background.
Now, the second photo represents close to how I see it. The center remains visible, though not as sharply, while the edges blur into obscurity, fading away like a vignette. This effect is what I experience every day: a focused view in the middle, surrounded by a clouded, blurry periphery. My vision often feels as if I’m looking through a narrow tunnel, where the world beyond my direct gaze fades, making navigation and recognizing surroundings much more challenging.
This comparison is just one way to help others understand my reality. It’s a reminder of the adaptations I make and the support tools that help me continue exploring and engaging with the world around me.
