  • How Much can you see... Really?
    Dec 10 2025

    Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

    On this week’s show

    “How Much can you see... Really?”

    How often do you get asked “How much can you actually see?” and how do you feel when someone asks you that question? We asked a few friends this question, with mixed results – mostly positive – it turns out most of us simply want to be understood... even when we don’t really know how to answer the question.

    Studio 1 welcomes any input from our listeners. If you have any experience or thoughts about issues covered in this episode or believe there is something we should be talking about.
