The Problem Of Unnecessary Blindness

The World Health Organization (WHO) has created an agenda for 2030. Within this agenda there are seventeen sustainable developmental goals (SDG) that aim to transform our world. These goals are to be met through numerous different means, government policies, public change, non-government organizations (NGO) and a variety of other ways. NGO’s are a large way to help meet these goals and impact the world for the better. LRBT, an NGO that focuses on eye care for those who live in Pakistan, focuses on meeting the goal ensuring healthy lives and wellbeing for all at all ages (United nations SDG, reference). Ensuring eye care for the residents of Pakistan not only provides them with care they should be subject too always, but

The United States has many minority groups that face oppression. In the media today, most of the minority issues that are highlighted involve the LGBTQ community, women, and racial minorities. Differently-abled people are rarely given the space to share with the world how they see it. This literature review will discuss terms related to visual impairment, legislative measures taken in the United States to assist those with severe visual impairments, and the oppression and discrimination those who are visually impaired face.

The society questions why it is so challenging to communicate with foreigners. "The Country of the Blind" is a short story first published in 1904 by H.G. Wells. He is well known for his science fiction novels. This short story is focusing on sight and blindness and brings up the theme of prejudice versus learning. In the novel we follow a traveller, who ends up in an unfamiliar strange place, which set him in learning trail, figuring out who he really is. How does the writer illustrate the difficulties with foreigners in this short story?

In, the article “Legally Blind: Why I’m Against Legalizing Marijuana” by Dr. Howard Samuels he discusses his research on why Marijuana should be illegal. Although, he believes that recreational use of Marijuana should be outlawed he does concede that the part of Marijuana without the THC that is used for medical purposes should be legal. The author tells us that adults that are smoking THC are using it to solve their personal problems. Hence, its developing hardcore anxiety in adults and ruining people’s ability to adopt new skills or enhancing skills. Furthermore, because of it adults are largely becoming dependent on the high. Also, he talks about that smoking THC is holding back people’s own thoughts, feelings, and emotions. Since, his belief

I went to the Palais de Justice de Montréal and saw, in superior court, the trial of the Crown against Ms.Gardner. The 26 years old woman was arrested 4 years ago for importation and possession of powdered cocaine when she landed at Montréal’s Pierre Elliott Trudeau Airport from Jamaica, where she was on vacation. In the 2 suitcases she was carrying, they found over 30kg of cocaine which was separated between the two suitcases. That would have been equivalent to over thirty thousand doses had it made its way in the streets and its value is estimated from 2.4 to 3.5 million dollars. The reason why she was carrying such a large amount so badly hidden is unclear since the process was close to an end and both parties were just summarizing their evidences. The normal sentence for her

Bob has been missing, but he is probably just outside getting some air. Sasha thinks otherwise, Tyrese and Rick tell her not to worry, but minutes later when they are distracted, I catch her sneaking out. I inform them, so they go after her, then I go looking for Daryl. I wanna know his opinion on this whole D.C. thing. "Carl, have you seen Daryl?" I ask as he lowers Judith into her crib, that is just a woven basket with a blanket and pillow inside. "He and Carol left right after we finished eating, haven't seen them return yet." I sigh and sit back on the bench. "Why the wanly face?" He asks, fixing his hair. "I really wanted to talk to him, that's all." "I'm sure he'll be back soon." I nod.

Throughout history, noble kings and powerful leaders have fallen from power due to their blindness towards people they trusted. Novels, such as William Shakespeare’s King Lear convey a similar message. Although blindness is conceived as the lack of sight by many, metaphorically speaking, blindness is the inability to see and interpret the truth due to one’s deceptiveness and lies. In King Lear, Lear’s blindness towards Goneril and Regan, and his arrogance, results in his downfall. Similarly, Gloucester’s blind-eye towards Edmund results in his downfall and ironically, his loss of eye-sight. Shakespeare conveys, through the life and dialogue of Lear and Gloucester,

Blindness takes the main theme in this novel. The people in this society have no idea of the intelligence of the Invisible Man through this time. This is because of the expectation during this time period. Black people were still highly disrespected and not accepted socially. They were never given the chance to show what they could do just because the color of their skin. As the novel went on, we saw how Trueblood and Clifton were taken away from the idea of being there own person. They were both taken into society as just another black person that has nothing to offer, nor the education to do anything. The Invisible Man is the only one that blew out of the idea of what a black man can do in this time era. He broke the blindness with the white

Vision challenge or impairment is when a person’s degree of seeing is very low and the affected person requires assistance in order to carry out daily routine. Significantly, for one to qualify as visually impaired there must be prove that a person cannot undertake duties by himself without necessary assistance. For a person to qualify as a visually challenged, there must be a prove that the affected eyes cannot be conventionally treated. Visual challenge cannot be corrected by surgery, refractive measures neither by medication and that is why it is termed as visual impairment. The most rampart causes of visual challenge are trauma, degenerative or congenital means and a variety of diseases. In the society,

Firstly, it is necessary for the Inaash to develop a systematic strategic plan (Alternative #1)—in response to the organization’s lack of coherent developmental strategy. Although this may consume time and energy as a result of deliberation among the board and members, a well-written and consistent mission, vision, and goals can provide a clear road map to the organization. Also, it can establish the organization’s culture and make the board—as well as the members—arrive to the same decision, actions, and objectives.
