Coming to Grips with Vision Loss

Hello, my name is Douglas Walker. Today I would like to take a little time to talk about coming to grips with vision loss.

You know, I've been living with vision loss myself for quite a few years now, and I have some definite thoughts about the topic. So let's go ahead and jump right in.

You're facing vision loss. Your head may be spinning with questions, with "what ifs.” Your emotions are probably bouncing all over the place. One minute, you're calm and headed toward acceptance. The next minute, you're overwhelmed, angry, afraid, and feeling helpless.

Well, let's take a minute and take a deep breath. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what you're feeling. In fact, it's natural. You just proved that you're human. And guess what? You're here. So that means you're looking for answers and a way to take back control of your life.

Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you. Your email address, name, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you. And don't worry, everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure. Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions, we are just a phone call away at 800-323-4238.

Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free-of-charge. And last but not least, it gives you direct access to the Hadley team. So now is your chance to sign up and join us.
