I have an acquaintance who had her eyes removed because of complications from diabetes. Sandy lives independently. She cooks her own meals with the help of her smart appliances and phone. She has help with shopping and trips to the doctor. Her dad rigged up lines she can hold on to and check her mailbox. She is such an inspiration with total loss of vision. I have GA and will most likely lose my central vision. I feel confident I can manage independent living. Sharon Moore patient leader
