Daily scribbles and drools... Day 82

How do we help the visually challenged to see change?


Went to get my eyes checked last evening. Right eye has been twitching these last two weeks and I assumed it was all the strain from the mobile/laptop overuse (no money has come in, Google!). With getting old comes greater fears. My eyesight and spine being the biggest winners.

How do the visually challenged manage? If I can't distinguish between currency, how do they handle this change with currency passing through sooo many hands? How do they cross the road. How do they identify flavours based on colours? How do they know which attire cut suits their body shape? How do they understand that the signal has turned green?

I have so many questions and I see no answers.

Do sign this petition --- with the hope that the Central Government, Reserve Bank of India, Public and Private sector banks, corporates etc... Make a change
