Blindness is a condition that results in a loss of vision. Complete blindness is a totally lack of light and perception. Blindness may be caused by certain diseases, malnutrition, eye injuries, and other causes. If you are a blind individual whose condition constitutes a medical disability, you should know that your boss does not have the right to discriminate against you based on your blindness.

If you believe that you have been a victim of disability discrimination, you may be able to bring a claim against your employer. In order to bring a medical disability suit, you must be able to show that your blindness is a medical disability, that your blindness resulted in physical limitations, that you can perform the essential tasks of your job, and that your employer has discriminated against you. Examples of ways in which your boss may have discriminated against you include not allowing you to miss work for medical appointments, not allowing you to use a seeing eye dog, not providing you with Braille materials or adaptive computer software, etc.
