Do you use Braille?
I don't really have much interest in design brands, but I like clothes and accessories that last!

you still haven't answered my question tho
how did you find the anon button?
I hope this isnt an inappropriate question but is it acquired blindness or was it from birth? I only ask as apparently blind people from birth do still dream, how are your dreams composed in terms of images/colours etc? :smile:

Thanks for this insightful (no pun intended :redface:) AMA, hopefully people can learn a lot :hugs:

Oh yes, all the time when out and about, particularly in new places or if my regular spots have moved things. But not so much in my home, I bet you could walk around your home blindfolded quite easily.
How do you find your way around places, like out and about shopping and stuff like that? Do you have a guide dog or something to help you?

My app can recognise click boxes, buttons and things like that and click them or fill them in on command, there are loads on the internet!
