From Clifford Cromwell, Bronx, NY:

It is sad that blind people in the developing countries feel dependent on modern technology for survival. Louis Braille's invention has served the blind community for so long. The advent of the computer is stupendous, but we should stop there.

On seeking a cure for eye problems: Today everyone is health-conscious. Herbs and natural remedies are ubiquitous. In the developing world, herbs are abundant. Animals have very good night vision, and their diet contributes to this. New generations of the blind should look to nature for cures.
