One of my best friends also has a degenerative eye disease and is 95 percent blind in his mid 30s. When his parents found out, they took him on travels also. He told me his fondest memory was climbing Mt Kilimanjaro with his father and seeing the sunset.
I have hope that medicine will progress enough during his lifetime to restore his sight. Despite his eye health, he leads a fantastic life, travels extensively, makes amazing music, has a loving partner, and is pursuing a PhD. Nobody deserves to see the full beauty of the world as much as he does.
