Loss Of Eyesight

Understanding the Impact of Vision Loss

Vision loss or impairment can profoundly affect every aspect of an individual’s life, limiting independence and access to many activities that were once taken for granted. Whether partial or total, the loss of eyesight is a significant challenge that goes beyond physical limitations—it can deeply impact emotional and psychological well-being. At Casey Law Offices, we recognize the severity of vision loss and are committed to supporting our clients through this difficult journey with dignity and compassion.

Causes of Vision Loss Due to Injury

Loss of eyesight can result from a variety of accidents or medical conditions that were caused by another party’s negligence or wrongdoing. Common causes include:

  • Workplace Accidents: Exposure to hazardous chemicals, intense light, or physical trauma to the eye in unsafe working environments.
  • Vehicle Accidents: Trauma from unexpected airbag deployment and failure to deploy, shattered glass, or direct injury in a traffic accident.
  • Medical Malpractice: Surgical errors, misdiagnosis, or improper medication that leads to deterioration of vision.
  • Assaults and Violent Acts: Injuries directly to the eye or head can cause immediate or progressive vision loss.

How do I prove fault in a loss of eyesight case?

Proving fault requires demonstrating that another party’s negligence or intentional act caused your vision loss. This typically involves gathering medical evidence, witness statements, expert testimony, and other relevant documentation to establish a direct link between the defendant’s actions and your injury.

What types of compensation can I seek in a loss of eyesight lawsuit?

Compensation in a loss of eyesight lawsuit may include medical expenses for past and future treatments, lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and costs associated with life adjustments (such as home modifications and specialized equipment).

 

Legal Rights and Compensation

If you or a loved one has suffered vision loss due to an accident, negligence, or a deliberate act, you may be entitled to substantial compensation. This compensation typically covers:

  • Medical and Rehabilitation Costs: Treatment expenses, including surgeries, medications, and therapies to manage or recover vision, as well as adaptive technologies to assist with daily activities.
  • Loss of Income and Earning Capacity: Compensation for current and future income losses if the vision loss impacts your ability to work.
  • Pain and Suffering: Compensation for the physical and emotional distress caused by your impairment.
  • Lifestyle Modifications: Costs associated with modifications to your home and lifestyle to accommodate your new needs.
