Okemos_Veteran74 Posted March 17, 2017 Share Posted March 17, 2017 Has anyone had a referral to the BRS Program? I am a candidate for it and I am wondering if some of the services of this program have been helpful to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator broncovet Posted March 17, 2017 Moderator Share Posted March 17, 2017 Excellent question. I suggest you apply, then document your experience on hadit, so that you can assist other blind Veterans. Or, maybe someone else can chime in who has been through the program, but you can still apply and post your views on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Buck52 Posted March 17, 2017 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted March 17, 2017 (edited) what is the criteria for BRS? there should be something about this in the CFR'S What services does the VA provide for blind veterans? Blind veterans may be eligible for services at a VA Medical Center or for admission to a VA blind rehabilitation center or clinic. Services are available at all VA medical facilities through the Visual Impairment Services (VIST) Coordinator. I some times feel like I am going blind and I mention this to the VA Eye Dr's I can't see to read or type without reading glasses if I take them off all I see is just mixed up scribble letters and can't til what they are blurred vision. but I can see things ok far away and if its big letters, the eye VA Eye Dr's says nothing wrong with my vision and I don't even need glasses...but there full of sh** I need reading glasses to see anything up close or unless its in Inch or bigger letters...I can see to drive but when it comes to reading I'm totally blind without my reading glasses.
