Living With Retinitis Pigmentosa
Being a young person with Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) or any type of visual impairment can be very rough. Many things that others can do become chores for an individual with vision loss. As stated by my current RP and low vision specialists, Retinitis Pigmentosa can be described as a degenerative genetic condition in the eye in which eventually causes blindness. With any vision problem, more problems get created. People who have a severe case lose their individuality and that creates depression.
