| definition |
Description: Any descriptions about visual impairment. This can be cause by eye problems, or visual cortex problems, we do not distinguish between them. Cataract is not one of them, as this is a diagnosis, and we cannot fully determine whether a donor had visual problems or not. And, a lot of patients get cataract surgery, after which we can assume the vision is better again. |
