In Virginia, a person is considered legally blind if their best-corrected vision is 20/200 or worse in their better eye, or if they have a visual field of 20 degrees or less. This definition aligns with the federal standard for legal blindness, which is used for various purposes, including eligibility for disability benefits and services. Individuals meeting these criteria may qualify for specific assistance and resources designed to support those with visual impairments.
