Yes. Some blind people still have some vision, some can only see white lights, some can only see blurry colors, some have black dots or tunnel vision. The general definition of blindness is that it is non-correctable with glasses. But also visual distortions that interfere with normal tasks.
Yeah most blind people have at least some level of light perception in their eyes but not all. Some can see but it’s just very blurry and not really enough to process most of their surroundings. Some may have small slivers of clearer vision. Being blind mainly just means your vision is impaired enough to where glasses can’t fix your vision and you need aids to some extent
I'm blind with some light and color perception. I for me see smudges of color behind tv static. It's like I'm trying to look past the static to see the world beyond it, but as time goes on, the TV static gets thicher and thicker.
Yeah, blindness can be in such a lot of shapes and severities. I have 80 percent less visual nerves than most people, and I can still see most things except small text and street signs. I can walk normally too, which caused me to have an identiy crisis at one point. I felt like I could not be categorized as blind, because a stereotypical blind person has no idea what light is, an nor I could be normal, because I have a hard time recognizing faces as well.
I know the feeling… I have papilledema, especially in my right eye my optic nerve is really damaged… feel kind in the middle like you not enough to be categorised blind but not enough normal too …
Wait, as in you have 80% of the same visual nerves as most people, or you're down to 20% of the same visual nerves as most people? Because the latter makes me think you're a superhuman if you're able to still see most things. Either that, or we really don't use 80% of our visual nerves all the time...which isn't unheard of, so...I guess that explains it?
Being blind must be super hard :( You can't see colors and people's faces, or you can't see the world and some of it's amazing places. You guys are so strong and you proven that you can still live a good life even if you are blind. Love you guys💓
Yes being blind is hard for a lot of people especially when it first happens it takes a long time to get adjusted some people adjust quickly while others don’t in my case I’m not blind but I am legally blind and visually impaired due to retinopathy of prematurity it has its good days and bad days but I constantly go to bed every night worrying if I’m going wake up the next morning and not be able to see I will give you an example I dozed off one time for about an hour I woke up I swear I couldn’t see anything other than a whitish gray fog I was panicked and scared but it finally cleared up I was probably just dreaming but still but anyway lots of visually impaired and blind people go on to live wonderful lives and I have met some truly remarkable and amazing people in the blind community and some of the things that they do is just absolutely incredible
As a special education teacher who has worked with visually-impaired students in the past, it brings me to tears to see you empowering these young leaders! 😭 Thank you so much for educating us all, and this is the content our world needs more than ever! 💖

I love this my daughter is 5 years old and born with no eyes she goes to a mainstream school but is now starting to realise she is different to the other kids we keep telling her how great she is and she can try everything that everyone else does but still doesn't stop her asking me to give her eyes which is sad but she has mostly good days and tomorrow they are getting her bell ball out to play football with her friends. I tell her about you and everything you do sometimes she listens to your videos x
Sounds like she may be a good candidate for learning the clicker to help her get around. Knew a man that used it who was born without eyes. He said due to this his brain is heavily adapted to noticing subtleties in sound. He used a metronome watch walking around. A keychain with a click device when he was being more specific with his movement. Fun, interesting guy, a bit odd or unique. Very much a Savant type. Extremely good at some things while oblivious to others.
@@katiekennett5294 wow, never heard of that. It will be hard for her, even if you tell her how precious she is, she will struggle with feeling different. But with loving family ans support she'll grow up to be a great human.
I just want to say thank you so much Lucy for taking the time out of your day to meet us kids it really inspired me to meet someone living an amazing life even though they have no vision thank you Guide Dogs for organising this once in a life time opportunity we love you Lucy❤
Dear Lucy, even though you cannot see light, please know that you yourself shine so bright and your light makes the world a much better place. We love you.
She can read it. She most likely has a program like voice over on her phone that will read the text to her. I don’t know for a fact since I don’t know her personally. I’m guessing it’s something like that
I love how Lucy is just so positive with all the kids and herself and just really makes everyone appreciate who they are even if they are not all the same!
I have quite a bit of anxiety about telling people I’m blind because my blindness isn’t what they expect it to be and I don’t really look the part. Thanks so much for breaking down that barrier a bit Lucy!
@happyhorse1028 so here's the thing. The majority (I mean the vast majority) of blind people don't experience a lack of visual stimulous. There are many forms of blindness. Maybe your visual experiences relate to the world around you but not enough for you to actually use them, or maybe you get some visual experience from things around you but there is too much interference like flashes or floaters, or maybe you only have only light perception, or your vision is all blurs or reflections upon reflections, or maybe your vision doesn't relate to the world around but your brain still gives you vivid phosperesence, or maybe your mind is constantly full of the remembered sights from before vision lost... There are so many ways to be blind that are not just darkness. And those sxperiences can pervaid the dreams of the blind just as much as they do everyone else. So the question almost doesn't make sense. My visual experience of dreaming is probably very different to yours but it is still a visual experience, so does that make my answer yes or no? I don't know!
@@sjbeard2941 I think it makes your answer yes, even though the visuals in your dreams may be different to the images in the dreams seeing people have. Thank you for your answer. I found it very interesting and informative.
OMG! I have peters anomaly, which only affects my eyes. It is a step down from peters plus. Peters plus affects the entire body as well as the eyes in someway where is peters anomaly just affects the eyes and the way they develop. It’s so cool to hear someone say they have a similar condition as mine.
I love how she still faces whoever is speaking despite her not being able to see them. You can tell her parents still raised her with etiquette, vision or no vision ❤🙌! You really are the sweetest and thank you to these kids for helping me be more insightful to their conditions 💕
She only lost her vision when she was 17, and it’s natural to turn your head towards the one that’s speaking. Molly Burke does the same and she lost her vision at 14.
@@prinzezze I’m aware of that but being that she has been completely blind for some time now, it would seem that that reaction might fade away. I had a couple classmates who lost their vision before and they stopped turning their heads when speaking, so it was just a cool observation here.
@@boogie_4203 I think it depends on the person. Some people care about etiquette for the sake of looking engaged and/or professional, and others only care for the practical aspect of it, which is that they can't see anyway. Lucy and Molly are public figures of sorts, and they don't stop looking around and turning their heads probably partly because they recognize that it can be a sign of professionalism, and partly because they simply think it's important to do so. Also, some blind people WANT to look more blind because they're tired of having their issues dismissed or discredited. Others want to look less blind because they want to dispel the idea that blind people have to LOOK blind.
Good on these kids for talking about it. Talking about our weaknesses is never easy, and these kids are tougher than most not just for what they deal with everyday, but for talking about it and acknowledging it for what it is. You guys are inspiring to others, whether you realize it or not. Stay strong, you guys.
I am friends with twins who have albinism. They both competed in the Para triathlon at the Commonwealths and got 2nd and 4th. Love you Chloe and Judith. Xx
Love this! I have severe keratoconus and I was blind for a few years in one eye until I had the surgery. It has about 60% vision now! My vision is still very unique and different afterwards
I remember when I was kid, I asked to my mom what blind people see and she gently laughed at me thinking it was kinda stupid to ask. But now I’m happy to know that it wasn’t a stupid question at all and blindness can have many causes and can be very diversified.
Around a year ago I joined a dnd server where 80% of the other people are blind. 8 months ago I started a relationship with one of them. He told me that he's completely blind and that he can only see the most beautiful shade of dark gray. He also tells me about how angry he gets when people assume he needs help.
Thank you all for sharing your personal experiences & helping us understand a little more about a range of different visibility impairments & what has caused them. 💛
You are awesome lucy you are an amazing woman i look to you people like you and molly and oyher blind youtubers do so much for the blind community you are all amazing women
It's important for sighted people to see and be aware that vision impairment has many forms and levels - I'm sure a lot of these kids get crap CONSTANTLY because "You don't look blind, your eyes just look really wiggly" or some such.
I can totally relate, I am an old fart, but I’ve been legally blind since birth and I do have some usable vision but I have spent my whole life dealing with the “you don’t look blind” Or in my younger days “you’re too pretty to be blind”. It is such bullshit.
@@Positivekitten Just reading you saying "you’re too pretty to be blind” raised my blood pressure. I hate this kind of obliviousness so much. At least I hope they say that just because they're to stupid to figure out how wrong it sounds, not to just be mean...
Hello! This Is very true, im Finlay from this video. Many people can be very rude and discriminatory, personally I don’t really think schools do enough about it either 😊
I have stargardt deseas too.....i'm trying to find people with the same deseas to talk to and understand my condition in a better way because here in France doctors didn't tell me much so yeah....
My brother has detached retinas since birth and my mother has stargardts. I only have a stigmatism, sensitivity to bright light, and need glasses for distance. I loved this comparison and your page in general, I wish more people knew about all the varying eye-sight conditions.
can you please tell me whats been going on in my eye? i have perfect 20/20 vision in one eye and 25/20 vision in another, but i have a black dot on the sclera of my eye, like a mole.
I feel bad that we live in a world where we still need disabled people to explain themselves, but I do appreciate that awareness is changing, if incrementally, for the better. Thank you Lucy and thanks to other creators from the disabled community for explaining a little bit about what your world is like.
Jesus I pray you will touch their eyes in the Name of Jesus! Heal them and I pray you save them and and reveal your love to them and open those blind eyes right now in Jesus name! Amen I love you all and Jesus loves you too
This was great to see, i didn't know that blindness feels and looks different to different people. So great to see these kids be strong about it, you guys are awesome! :D
In 4th grade , I had a classmate named Moss . He was fully blind , and he introduced himself to the class saying “ Im moss and I can’t see . “ But Moss could run very well ! I felt bad for him .
Blind people often wear glasses because their eyes may be going all over the place and it looks weird, and they also wear it for light sensitivity because some can see light from dark but when it's too bright they can't make out shapes
My blindness was caused by Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. It Makes me feel appreciative that everything is extremely blurry and if i want to see whats what i have to put my face right up to it in the eye that has a little vision. Cheers from the USA
I love how your always so bright and cheerful Lucy, no matter what comes your way you are very positive and I love that, same with your friends. It is beautiful 💖
I was diagnosed at 31 with type 1 diabetes, just two months ago. I have a fear of being blind, which is a big possibility one day with type one diabetes. I am so grateful TH-cam put you in my loop. You have really shown me that life can still be enjoyed if I do end up losing my sight as the years go on.
It’s high blood sugar that damages the blood vessels in the retina. My friend did this to himself by eating bags of sweets and drinking tons of full fat cola. He now uses a cane and the arm of his wife but rarely goes out. Just keep to a sensible diet and make sure you visit the optician for your checks. You can stop this happening to yourself by being careful with your eating habits.
My younger sister got type one diabetes when she was six. 7 years later and she's still standing strong. There were a few bumps on the road, but she kept her head up and refused to let anyone think differently about her. I'm hopeing the best for you, stay strong.
@@Dalulu32 I'm glad your sister has done so well for herself. I could not imagine being a child and having to learn to live with type 1. I was lucky that my college degree pushed diabetes education. So once I got my blood work back I got my sugar under control quickly.
You have the most amazing aura and I also learn so much from you! Thank you for your videos! 😊☀️ And isn't this a great group. Wishing you lots of fun and success together, go flood the social media with your content 🙃
Fyi deafness works a bit like this too. I'm deaf in the left but my right can hear only midtones (at a reasonably normal level). So I can't hear bass or bells at all, ever, but if you're sitting in front of me I can hear you. (Old men with grumbly voices excluded -too low). People sometimes don't believe I'm deaf. Even my bosses at work, I find out they've been testing me secretly , creeping up on me with bells and stuff. Since I can hear you talking I must be lying about not hearing the loud ass siren, right!? There's all kinds of possibilities with our amazing complex bodies!
Lucy, I really love your videos but can you please improve the quality of the videos, content is really good but the overall video quality is low, I am not sure if it's my device's problem or not, but for me most of the short videos of your channel have 144 p quality even when I try to change the video quality to 360 p Lots of love from India ❤️❤️❤️
That was interesting for me to learn. I was always under the assumption that people who were completely vision impaired saw a blank canvas of either black or white.
As someone with right sided superior partial inferior quadrantanopeia (I've done some researching once I found out and there's not a shorter name 😂) I lack peripheral vision, and I am so glad that I saw this video bc it helps me learn more about what humans and society as a whole, they are very strong 🤩
My parents knew of my chance for semi-blindness (100% left eye and ~10% right eye) at birth and still chose to have me. I still find that choice to be incredibly cruel, but with the life I'm given I'll do my best to help others.
I'm a blind person and all of these do exist. The only thing I can see are things that are half a foot ahead of me, otherwise, I need to wear glasses. Blind people are all different, some see blurry, some see black, some cannot see out of one eye, and etc.
I low-key hate how much I don't know. these kiddos are explaining their issues and I'm like "I just thought it was blackness".
Yes. Some blind people still have some vision, some can only see white lights, some can only see blurry colors, some have black dots or tunnel vision. The general definition of blindness is that it is non-correctable with glasses. But also visual distortions that interfere with normal tasks.
You’re not blind, so it’s not your fault that you don’t know.
Yeah most blind people have at least some level of light perception in their eyes but not all. Some can see but it’s just very blurry and not really enough to process most of their surroundings.

Blind people often wear glasses because their eyes may be going all over the place and it looks weird, and they also wear it for light sensitivity because some can see light from dark but when it's too bright they can't make out shapes
0:30 How did she know where she was?
Idk
So heartwarming to see them be able to share about their conditions, I wish them the best in life! ❤❤❤
"Six blind people describe WHAT THEY SEE"😭😭😭
We gotta appreciate Oscar wearing a surfer boy pizza shirt- 👏

/effect @a clear
Not hate speech its just joke comment
Sorry for that :)
Lucy, you're amazing. You've come a long way, educating all of us. Really appreciate it. Thank you so much.
My blindness was caused by Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. It Makes me feel appreciative that everything is extremely blurry and if i want to see whats what i have to put my face right up to it in the eye that has a little vision. Cheers from the USA
I love how your always so bright and cheerful Lucy, no matter what comes your way you are very positive and I love that, same with your friends. It is beautiful 💖
I just want to say thank you for teaching me something new today
“I’m white washed in my eyes”
“Cool”

Everyone : support to everyone with all kinds of blindness
Me: sees the kid with the surfer boy pizza shirt🤓
I was diagnosed at 31 with type 1 diabetes, just two months ago.
I have a fear of being blind, which is a big possibility one day with type one diabetes.
I am so grateful TH-cam put you in my loop. You have really shown me that life can still be enjoyed if I do end up losing my sight as the years go on.
It’s high blood sugar that damages the blood vessels in the retina. My friend did this to himself by eating bags of sweets and drinking tons of full fat cola. He now uses a cane and the arm of his wife but rarely goes out.
Just keep to a sensible diet and make sure you visit the optician for your checks. You can stop this happening to yourself by being careful with your eating habits.
My younger sister got type one diabetes when she was six. 7 years later and she's still standing strong. There were a few bumps on the road, but she kept her head up and refused to let anyone think differently about her. I'm hopeing the best for you, stay strong.
@@Dalulu32 I'm glad your sister has done so well for herself. I could not imagine being a child and having to learn to live with type 1.
I was lucky that my college degree pushed diabetes education. So once I got my blood work back I got my sugar under control quickly.
I hope all of them a good life
You have the most amazing aura and I also learn so much from you! Thank you for your videos! 😊☀️ And isn't this a great group. Wishing you lots of fun and success together, go flood the social media with your content 🙃
Fyi deafness works a bit like this too. I'm deaf in the left but my right can hear only midtones (at a reasonably normal level). So I can't hear bass or bells at all, ever, but if you're sitting in front of me I can hear you. (Old men with grumbly voices excluded -too low). People sometimes don't believe I'm deaf. Even my bosses at work, I find out they've been testing me secretly , creeping up on me with bells and stuff. Since I can hear you talking I must be lying about not hearing the loud ass siren, right!?
There's all kinds of possibilities with our amazing complex bodies!
The ones who are blessed with sight can never know how a blind person feels, i wish that you guys live the happiest lives ever ❤
Damn, and I thought blindness was just "blackness". Mad respect for all of you!
How lovely was this and I loved it how everyone listened so well 😊
Bro is wearing a watch 💀
I love the way she keeps encouraging them to share their feelings, and making them feel comfortable ! Your so sweet.
Me a Dane: Wait, do you suffer from Winnie the Pooh?
Yes, Winnie the Pooh in Danish is Peter Plys😅
I LOVE Tayas shorts! They are all such fabulous kiddos and I appreciate them all sharing their experience so we can learn ❤
Did anyone else notice that Oscar is wearing glasses even tho he's blind?💀😭
Lucy, your dress is gorgeous!
What a fantastic group of young people! 😁
hi im chloe and i have full 20/20 vision sorry i had to do that lol.
20/20 vision is actually quite rare
@@sapphiraadult5752 yeah i know
If I had to pick I would pick being deaf over blind :(
Lucy, I really love your videos but can you please improve the quality of the videos, content is really good but the overall video quality is low, I am not sure if it's my device's problem or not, but for me most of the short videos of your channel have 144 p quality even when I try to change the video quality to 360 p
Lots of love from India ❤️❤️❤️
You can toggle the quality up to about 720p
on desktop right now i have it in full 1080P which is great
@@diegoscoffeemug thanku ❤️💜
@@bagelbenji thanku ❤️💜
The kid second to last has a surfer boy pizza shirt
I also have albinism and it decreased my vision a bit and my teacher always has to move me near the front do I can see it and it's really rare
Wow I feel like I learn a lot I didn't know all the different types of blindness also you are great with kids
I'm blind I have a guide dog If your wondering how I'm typing this I use a voice thing on my phone
I’m so happy I can know your perspectives I’m sorry this has happened and I’m glad u guys seem happy
Man, Those last 2 kids with Stargardt's disease kinda sounds like my migraines but its a black spot instead of a fuzzy grey spot
that's crazy how many differences there are with blindness! im learning so much its crazy
support groups like this are so important. keep it up.
Thank you I had so much fun doing the work shop 😊
I have a cataract in my left eye , i have had it since i was little
Their beauty is blinding!!
I was expecting one of them to say something like “I see darkness.” Or “all I see is black”
That was interesting for me to learn. I was always under the assumption that people who were completely vision impaired saw a blank canvas of either black or white.
As someone with right sided superior partial inferior quadrantanopeia (I've done some researching once I found out and there's not a shorter name 😂) I lack peripheral vision, and I am so glad that I saw this video bc it helps me learn more about what humans and society as a whole, they are very strong 🤩
Your all so beautiful just the way you are! 💗
And no one can change that. 💗
My parents knew of my chance for semi-blindness (100% left eye and ~10% right eye) at birth and still chose to have me. I still find that choice to be incredibly cruel, but with the life I'm given I'll do my best to help others.
I feel so bad for all these kids. Imagine what it is like stepping into there shoes! And also I have no idea on what some of the words mean.
The surfer boy shirt thoo
My left eye is damaged , my glasses lens thickness is more on my left eye .
I'm a blind person and all of these do exist. The only thing I can see are things that are half a foot ahead of me, otherwise, I need to wear glasses. Blind people are all different, some see blurry, some see black, some cannot see out of one eye, and etc.
