      What Is Blindness?
      Blindness is a partial or total loss of vision that can be present from birth or happen suddenly due to injury or illness, or gradually due to old age or progressive diseases such as cataracts, retinal degeneration and glaucoma.
      Gradual loss of vision can be hard to detect, but here are a few signs:
      • Misjudging heights and bumping into walls, furniture or other objects
      • Confusion in new surroundings
      • Reluctance to move from one spot
      • Not being able to find food and water bowls
      • General clumsiness and disorientation
      • Easily startled
      • Eye rubbing or squinting
      • Cloudy, discolored, inflamed or tearing eyes and a large pupil
      What Causes Blindness In Dogs?
      Though blindness can be a congenital condition or part of the aging process, the following conditions can also lead to vision loss in dogs:
      • Progressive retinal atrophy
      • Suddenly acquired retinal degeneration syndrome
      • Collie eye anomaly
      • Retinal dysplasia and detachment
      • Diabetes mellitus
      • Stroke
      • Untreated eye infections
      • Glaucoma
      • Dry eye syndrome
      • Retinal pigment epithelial dystrophy
      • Cataracts
      • Uveodermatologic syndrome

Many important insights into how healthy and diseased bodies function have been made as a result of crucial animal research.

Blindness
Blindness has several causes. Cataract is treated surgically and glaucoma with eye drops or surgery. Other causes are trauma, abnormal blood vessel growth in premature birth and diabetes, macular degeneration, and genetic conditions, especially retinitis pigmentosa. In developing countries blindness is also caused by vitamin A deficiency and two infectious diseases, trachoma and onchocerciasis (river blindness). Cataract Research in a strain of blind mice has highlighted the importance of a DNA-degrading enzyme that helps the developing lens in the eye to remain transparent. The lens is made up of clear fibre cells. As they form, their internal structures, such as the nucleus and power-boosting mitochondria, are broken down to prevent the lens from becoming cloudy. Mice lacking an enzyme called DLAD were unable to degrade fibre cell DNA, and they developed cataracts. DLAD is also found in human lens cells, so some cataract patients probably have a deficiency in the DLAD gene Glaucoma Abnormal blood vessel growth The blindness of diabetes and prematurity is caused by abnormal blood vessel growth. In mice an eye protein, pigment epithelium-derived factor, has halted this

Blindness Lent 4 A John 9:1-41
(See the appendix to this sermon. It is a dramatic reading of the gospel story.) Blindness. Stories about blindness Today, most of us dont have personal contacts or personal experiences with people who are blind. And so for some of us, the blind people we see are living in downtown Seattle. In our limited experiences, we usually see a blind person carrying a white cane. We watch them standing at an intersection in downtown Seattle, waiting for the light to change, listening to the people move across the street when the light changes. They carefully put their white cane in front of them, feeling the curb and where to step off the curb. We marvel at the ability and tenacity of blind people to get around. When I think of blindness, I think of Terry Ray from my early years here at Grace Lutheran Church. Terry Ray was an active member of our church, a big guy, some 250 pounds, age twenty-four, a youth advisor. He worked with our high school kids as an advisor. One day, the high schoolers were down at an apartment down in Des Moines, and we were playing a volleyball game. Soon, Terry Ray, the blind advisor, was coming onto the court, throwing his white cane on the ground on the sidelines. He was going to be on my side, right by me, and I was nervous. I was afraid that the volley ball would come over the net and hit his big thick glasses; the glasses would break and cut his face or nose. But Terry was a gamer, and all the kids admired Terry Ray.

Vision impairment can range from mild to severe. The leading causes of vision impairment and blindness in the United States are age-related eye diseases: macular degeneration cataract and glaucoma . Other eye disorders, eye injuries and birth defects can also cause vision loss. A loss of vision means that you may have to reorganize your life and learn new ways of doing things. If you have some vision, visual aids such as special glasses and large print books can make life easier. There are also devices to help those with no vision, like text-reading software and braille books. Sometimes, vision loss is preventable. Regular comprehensive eye exams and prompt treatment are critical.

With Mr. Franz Voglbauer a constructive meeting was held on various topics re blind shooting. This resulted in a memorandum of understanding in which the different guidelines were set that must lead to a better understanding between both sport committees and hopefully will be to the benefit of our blind athletes. MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING This memorandum of understanding established between ISCD, representing Paralympic Shooting Sports, and IBSA, representing International Blind Shooting Sports, formally recognizes the relationship that has existed between these two Sport groups.
  • ISCD continues to support the participation of blind shooting events on the program of ISCD sanctioned shooting competitions. ISCD will continue to encourage competition organizers to include and promote blind shooting events in sanctioned competitions.

Blind Cricket is a slightly altered version of standard cricket designed for visually impaired and blind people. The main differnces are:
  • The team is made up of a mixture of vision impaired and totally blind players The ball is bowled underarm The ball must bounce at least twice before reaching the batsman A totally blind bowler uses a caller behind the stumps while bowling A totally blind batsman has a runner to run up the pitch for them
Apart from these differences, there are some restrictions regarding the number of players of each vision category and how little or long each can bowl.
