Good evening members
I have diabetic retinopathy, I suffered a bleed in my left eye and can hardly see out of it. The right eye is not so good either. I struggle to read small print especially if on coloured background. Even street names, building names, exit signs, train platform notices, train & bus numbers are a problem to read.
My sight is poor in what people would consider to be a normal level of light. It is worse at night. So it is a slow process in the kitchen.
I used to like going out and travelling. Now I am not keen and would not like to undertake an unfamiliar journey, least of all at night. I used to have a restricted licence but lost it March 2025 fue to my condition.
I am filling in the PIP form for the first time and cannot decide how to put this in both mobility questions, planning a journey and going out. and preparing food.
Suggestions on the other questions would also be welcome.
