Someone who is legally blind would be able to read only the top line of the chart (a capital E) while wearing corrective lenses. The line below the big E is the line for 20/100. There are also tests that can measure in between 20/200 and 20/100.
Blindness is a lack of vision. It may also refer to a loss of vision that cannot be corrected with glasses or contact lenses. Partial blindness means you have very limited vision. Complete blindness means you cannot see anything and do not see light.
Legal blindness is a term that applies to people with a specific threshold of visual impairment (20/200 vision). Notably, legal blindness is not the same as total blindness where a person cannot see anything at all. A legally blind person can have some vision and may be able to see things like shapes and colors.
Legal blindness occurs when a person has central visual acuity (vision that allows a person to see straight ahead of them) of 20/200 or less in his or her better eye with correction. With 20/200 visual acuity, a person can see at 20 feet, what a person with 20/20 vision sees at 200 feet.
We apply a higher SGA, $2,260 if you are blind (effective January 2022). The local Social Security office personnel do not make the disability determination. The local Social Security office sends the claim to a State agency that we call the Disability Determination Services (DDS).

DO give a clear word picture when describing things to an individual with vision loss. Include details such as color, texture, shape and landmarks. DO touch them on the arm or use their name when addressing them. This lets them know you are speaking to them, and not someone else in the room.
If youre blind, Social Security has special rules that allow you to receive benefits when you are unable to work. We pay benefits to people who are blind under two programs: the Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program and the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program.

A legally blind person can have some vision and may be able to see things like shapes and colors.
Seeing the different sources of light, called light perception, is another form of blindness, alongside tunnel vision and many more. Though, one point to consider is the fact that individuals who were born blind cannot tell whether they see total black or not because, simply, they cant really tell.
Legally blind means a person has a corrected vision of 20/200 in their best-seeing eye. If visual aids such as glasses can correct a persons vision to 20/20, they are not considered legally blind. Totally blind refers to a complete loss of sight.
