Hi!
Sorry guys; dont want to waste your time.
Steve posted about a member with visual impairment being placed in Support group because of the understanding communication update in the news section and the link to reading the members story takes you to the forum homepage not the actual post.
I have gone back over a week plus posts but cant find it.
If this will be time consuming for mods please ignore.
Many thanks

Re eye probs.
I have field vision 58% loss in right eye and 49% loss in left eye.
Field vision loss is not assessed as a visual impairment and therefore does not give any points at all.

Hi PSM,

Loss of peripheral vision (field vision) is assessed for obvious reasons, see :

3.2.7 Navigation and maintaining safety

On page 76 onwards of the WCA Handbook, in DWP Resources accessible from here :

ESA Guides
