Saving them from harassment and fraud

Persons with vision impairment are perceived to be dependent and non-contributing members of the society.

They remain deprived of opportunities of education, employment, social inclusion, or any form of independence. Given their vulnerability and marginalization, they are often made out to be easy targets of discrimination and fraud.
