A member asked:
Is being blind in one eye considered being legally blind?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Most states require a level of vision and a certain level of visual field loss in order to be considered legally blind in both eyes. Ask an eye doctor in your state what your definitions are. There are many different definitions; check them out online and have a great day.
