the way myopia is no longer a disability because it can be compensated for

I'd point out (and it's an assumption I've made in the past) that myopia being a disability and how severe is something that depends on if you've got access to glasses and contacts. I know a lot of great organizations that work on trying to get prescription glasses to people who just don't have access to them otherwise, both inside the U.S. and outside. I mean, if one didn't have insurance, I'm not sure HOW you'd get glasses or afford them at the prices that most places charge. Having been uninsured before getting domestically partnered, I know that I had just one pair of glasses that I'd had for five years, the script was out of date (my eyes had changed since then) and I sort of had to just work around vision issues because I could NOT get new ones. I couldn't even afford the eye appointment.

That said, I do understand what you meant, and yeah, I definitely agree that what is and isn't a disability will change and would love to see more authors explore that.

I'm glad you liked my post and found it useful!
