Living with Stargardt Disease | Chris’s Story

In this video, Chris describes living with Stargardt macular degeneration, and how it affects his vision. He tells us how he resisted learning braille as a child at school, but slowly came around to using assistive technology. It’s helped him consume information and have the same access to information as everyone else. As well as embracing technology, Chris was matched with his guide dog Varley who has helped him maintain his independence.

As inspiring as it sounds and fortunately it's not the same case here in the philippines . Barely any resources for the visually impaired but i'm happy that is it is available elsewhere .
