As some other people on here are letting it all hang out where their 
blindness is concerned, I thought I'd like to ask if anyone has become 
blind the way I did. I was a breach birth baby, and (from what I 
understand) the doctor when using forceps damaged my optic nerves. 
Therefore, I'm pretty much totally blind in my right eye, but do have 
some residual vision in my left. I don't recall coming across anyone 
like myself that has this problem, but if you do, let me know
Bill.
