How Is Blindness Defined?
Blindness is generally defined as vision loss resulting from injury, aging, disease, or congenital disorders. While blindness can be partial or total, it can also be preventable and treatable in about 80% of all cases (source: MNT). Still, about 20% of all blindness cases are incurable, resulting in irreversible vision loss.
What Are the Causes of Vision Loss & Blindness?
The main causes of blindness and vision loss are:
- Diseases
- Congenital disorders
- Head and/or eye injuries
When vision loss results form head and/or eye trauma, those injuries can include (and are not limited to):
- Burns
- Concussions
- Corneal abrasions
- Eye socket fractures
- Global ruptures
- Lacerations
- Shattered glass or other foreign objects entering the eyes
- Optic nerve damage
- Retinal detachment
- Severe eye infections
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
This trauma can occur in various types of accidents and incidents, like (but not limited to):
- Auto accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Tractor-trailer accidents
- Falls, including slip and falls
- Blows to the head
- Equipment or machinery accidents
- Work accidents
- Explosions

When Can Victims Sue & File a Blindness Claim?
Those who have suffered vision loss in an accident may have the right to sue IF:
- Negligence caused the accident that resulted in their vision loss.
- A party other than the victim was primarily responsible for the negligence and the accident that caused the vision loss.
- The accident happened within the past 1 to 2 years, depending on whether an individual is in Louisiana or Texas, respectively.
Talking to a catastrophic injury lawyer is the most efficient way to find out if you have a blindness claim.
What Damages Are Available for Vision Loss Cases?
When blindness and vision loss claims are successful, victims may be eligible for damages like (but not limited to):
- Medical bills
- Lost wages, benefits, and bonuses
- Lost earning capacity
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of consortium
This compensation can crucially help the injured focus on healing and adjusting to life with vision impairments. And the team at Morris & Dewett Injury Lawyers is skilled at securing these recoveries in all types of blindness cases.
