Born with severe vision loss, I lost my right eye, fought glaucoma in my left, adapted with tech and determination, and built a life and career in video editing, web development, and AI calling agents, supported by family and mentors — a story of resilience, independence, and forward momentum.

A few months old, my family noticed something was wrong: around five months, I didn’t see like others and bumped furniture. Specialists diagnosed my right eye blind; my left eye had limited vision.

In 2006, at age four, glaucoma forced emergency surgery; my sight weakened, but remained. In 2013, my right retina detached; having no sight it went unnoticed until pain forced removal and replacement with an artificial eye. In 2021–22, darkness fell on my left eye; doctors warned that rising pressure could cost my remaining sight. I began medication, and my vision stabilised and remains stable.

Growing up with low vision was hard—daily tasks and travel often needed help—so I adapted to stay independent: I ordered online and learned to manage. Stories of blind achievers inspired me. My mother was my biggest strength; my brothers and wife supported me always. Friends like Yousaf Saleem and mentor Azam Meghani from GIVE 4 NEEDY encouraged me.

My right eye is artificial, and my left eye has very limited sight. I provide video editing, web development and AI calling-agent services using a screen reader. I’m growing professionally and eager to connect. This is my story of vision loss, resilience, adaptation, and determination to keep moving forward
