Silent Stealer of Vision
Blindness is the state of lacking visual power that
disables the ability to see the environment and further react to it. In
biological terms it disables the connection of the eye to the brain via nerves
and hence the brain cannot convert the visual signals into actions. Blindness
can be categorized into various forms i.e. partial blindness, complete
blindness, etc but it surely devastates complete life of an individual.
Termed as “specially challenged people” by the UNO,
these people would have lost the charm of living their life if the people
wouldn’t have understood the need to help them. The aid was provided to these
people in various forms and organizations. Blind schools were setup specially
to train such special people to face the world.
In India, blind schools were setup to train these
people so that they are not left dependent on any individual in future. In
Delhi such blinds schools are running successfully with a massive support from
people. The blind school in Lodhi Colony in New Delhi- “Blind Relief
Association”
is looking after 600 such students. Such schools provide education as
well as employment to these blinds. The students are not only provided with the
bookish knowledge but are even made to operate computer. These students are
trained to their daily necessity work like washing their clothes, utensils
without any help. These students are trained to stand beside any normal
individual in any field and provide the same result as expected from any normal
individual.
It is amazing to see these students playing outdoor
games similar to a normal individual without any sense of blindness. Moreover
such schools raise the standard of such students to such a level that they are
invited by the multinational companies to provide their talent to the company.
God might have not provided them with the vision but
they are provided with a special 6th sense that allows them to
outstand themselves from other people.
