Victims of accidents who have suffered a severe eye injury often have to endure the emotional and psychological toll of having impaired sight. Those who have lost their vision permanently will have to accept that their way of living and the quality of their life changed forever.

Each such significant change is a loss of identity affecting the victim and the entire family.
