How friend groups cope when multiple members face vision challenges

Three of us in our friend group developed serious eye problems within a year - two from diabetes complications, one from an accident - and we've become this weird support network where we share tips and frustrations but also compete over who's handling it better. We used to be normal friends and now every hangout revolves around vision stuff and I miss who we were before.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared medical experiences are reshaping social dynamics in unexpected and complicated ways.
