You don't need sight to have vision

We help and support anyone of any age living with vision impairment across Scotland.

Welcome to Visibility Scotland

We help and support anyone of any age living with vision impairment across Scotland. Our aim is to help vision-impaired people live independent and fulfilling lives.

Terminology note

The website will use the term “vision impairment,” which encompasses visually impaired, sight impaired, blind, partially sighted, severely sight impaired, and sight loss.
