Henshaws InSights | Maaria's Story | Stories about sight loss

In this video, meet Maaria who is 16 and has Congenital nystagmus
In this episode, Maaria shares her experiences with her eye condition, including getting help and assistance at school. Maaria also talks about misconceptions about visual impairment, problem solving and being independent.
InSights are intimate personal stories of sight loss from individuals sharing their greatest challenges, their greatest fears, their darkest times and how they overcame them and moved forward in their lives.
We hope these stories will resonate and encourage others to move forward on their own sight loss journey, as well as help sighted people to understand more about what visually impaired people experience.

Great video 💜💜💜 but a small note, is she Muslim? and is this hijab ? if yes is it possible for Muslim girls to wear a T shirt with the hijab?

[@Henshaws]

I don’t know the answer to that question Sia, you will need to ask a practising Muslim. I’m glad you liked the video.
