UK Keratoconus Self-Help and Support Association

I love yet hate disability. Bit of a bold statement to make you may think, as what is their to love about a world not geared up for those of us who fail to see as the sighted world can and does? Thanks I guess to the severity of my KC I associate more as someone who is blind in a once sighted world...

I invert colours and use Zoom Text for large text portions to both read and write for me but magnify everything as standard. on my iPhone I use voice over, then again I am legally blind due to my KC n other complications so my sight is far worse than most whom have KC on its own.

so glad to hear its improving this has made me smile n say squee rather loud n had Mr Space Cadet look at me like wait whwat!

This makes me sad for many reasons a) The KC group is supposedly a National Charity and yet seems highly London centric when we know their are people with KC not just within the M25 and I know in the past AGM n conferences have occurred away from London making it more accessible for many to attend b...

if it is sutches rubbing they can remove n redo, prob best to go eye casualty n speak to a eye specialist n flag your concerns n explain the impact on day to day living and how that is impairing what you can do and the lack of quality of life it is giving you x

Iv got a iphone n just found it in the app store. not sure if it is android compatable but I use it daily as can do anything from colour recognition to read text to magnify to detect faces and more. x (only downside is it was scripted by microsoft so isn't open source) but is free

yup it is possible x

seeing AI is a heck of a lot better than be my eyes. x

nothing productive am afraid as I live in wrap around polarized glasses with my eyes closed n trust my cane a lot more of the time than I don't. x

I have a small supply of numbing drops which they dont like to give out cos "they sometimes cause corneas to thin" um duh no **** but the pain is horrific il take that risk. x
