My thoughts were similar to Sarahs. There are forms of sight impairment
that can manifest themselves like this - a form of astigmatism that =
means
that lines get confused. Some of this ought to be correctable with =
suitable
lenses and it may not have been easily apparent unless specifically
mentioned at regular sight exams. =20

I'm not an optician, but I think it worth mentioning and maybe getting a
check-up with a good optometrist. If there are injuries that have =
affected
her sight in some way then they will be able to take this into account.

Good luck to you both.

Gary

I didn't say this explicitly, but she was injured many years ago, and
she has received many therapies. So the disabilities are there and
recognized and diagnosed. The issue is to find a way around them.

Thanks,
Bill
