About this listen
When I was six years old, I started wearing glasses to correct my short sight. My view of my low vision quickly changed when I was twenty years old and found out that my brother had suddenly gone blind. He was told that he was suffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP), a disorder that slowly destroys the pigment cells in the eyes. So far, there are no known cures. At the tender age of twenty-one, I was also diagnosed with RP. Since then, I have been slowly going blind, not knowing when my world would finally fade away forever. Battling against such a crippling disease led me through a labyrinth of challenges. Having to constantly adapt my lifestyle to fit the changes to my vision became almost unbearable.
During my journey, I experienced a wide range of emotions as I fought to find a way to deal with my disability. After a long hard battle, overcoming huge obstacles, I finally learned to embrace my medical condition.
Despite the problems it has caused me, I have managed to keep a positive attitude towards life. Now I would like to pass on my strengths to other people.

A personal journey into the life and mind of a man going completely blind slowly.
Through My Eyes by Vendon Wright
It's about his courage to get back on his feet, embracing blindness, and continuing his life as normal as possible. Also being positive and encouraging others. Sharing how he coped in daily life with his blindness.
This book is a must read for anyone who wants to understand what it is like to go blind - or to go from light and colours into darkness, or completely blank/black.
He shares his vulnerability, resilience, and the capacity to grow and adapt into the life of complete darkness. Well done Vendon❤👏👏👏
