One of my colleagues that wanted to see my dress from the Guide Dogs for the Blind Holiday Luncheon found the
pictures . I was once again touched that I work with some incredible people that take such an interest in each other's lives. They also have each spent time wearing my goggles recently. These simulated goggles give one a sense of what it is like with Retinitis Pigmentosa. They don't make goggles for the visual field/acuity that I have - he told me tell them to just close their eyes! However, I do have a pinhole of vision and these goggles do give one a sense.
