World Braille Day
January: The Power of Ideas
The word of the day: low vision (noun) /loʊ ˈvɪʒən/
Meaning: when someone cannot see very well, even with glasses.
Example: Maria has low vision, so she needs a big book with large letters.
*In the early 19th century, people who were blind had very limited access to education, books, and written communication.
After losing his sight as a child, Louis Braille created a new reading and writing system. His invention gave blind people access to knowledge, language, and everyday independence.
