The protester said the rally was peaceful until it suddenly got ugly. Now, as he recovers in the hospital, he's not sure if he'll get his vision back in his right eye.
Because you still have eyesight in the other eye, so in social security’s mind there’s jobs in the Dictionary of Occupational Titles (the DOT) you could still perform, and if there’s three jobs you could perform despite your impairment you aren’t disabled. Also, if you’re under 50 you almost certainly aren’t disabled for some reason. It’s maddening.
A lot of states don’t even care if you’ve only got so-so vision in one eye and are completely blind in the other. No stereopsis, no problem! Here’s a driver’s license. Good luck.
I would absolutely not be comfortable driving with vision in only one eye. It isn’t just depth perception, but you are losing significant field of vision.
That’s bonkers, in the UK I’m technically disabled because i have tinnitus and ADHD. (I still work like anyone else, but I have protected rights because of my status)

Can’t judge distance anymore either.
