Registering issues with sight was created by KPPurple
Hi
Does anyone know if I can register my sight? If it's 6\18, I have issues with glare, light sensitivity, depth perception and being able to see people across the street etc.

I'm not sure what you mean by "register", with whom?

Hi KPPurple
I think you are asking us whether on the information you've provided us you might be able to be 'registered' as either 'sight impaired' (partially sighted) or 'severely sight impaired' (blind). As it happens I am registered partially sighted myself. Only a hospital eye specialist can decide whether you can be considered as either partially sighted or blind on the basis of criteria that they have to follow to determine this. You can read more about the criteria by clicking on the following link www.rnib.org.uk/eye-health/registering-y...iteria-certification
If you think you might qualify for registration or have any other concerns about your vision then I suggest you either make an appointment to see your GP or an optician. Rega

Sorry my last post was submitted incomplete in error!
continued.....Your GP or optician will be able to refer you to an eye specialist if necessary and as I've said only an eye specialist can decide if you are blind or partially sighted. Hope this information helps.
Kind regards
Mr B
