Louis Braille was born January 4, 1809 and his birthday is celebrated worldwide as World Braille Day.  Braille can mean many things for those with a vision loss. If you've never had sight, it is how you read. For those with a recent vision loss, it may feel like getting drawn into ;blindness.  Braille can be as simple as a handy way to label items around the house, like a medicine bottle, or as complex as reading a novel, business report,  or whatever is on the computer screen.
