"In 1994, my then nine-year-old daughter lost her right eye to retinopathy of prematurity. At that time, email and remote database access stood poised in the wings, moments away from surging into businesses and households everywhere. Had the technology been available back then, I would have quickly gone online to learn everything I possibly could about how to help my little girl navigate the difficult journey ahead. But in 1994, my only source of practical information came from the fifth edition of Frank B. Brady’s A Singular View. I mention this because ten years later, the sixth edition of Brady’s book is now in print and I continue to rely o this writer’s wise counsel. I have found nothing on the Internet, or anywhere else for that matter, that is as practical and down-to earth as this book for those with monocular vision and the people upon whom they rely to understand and encourage their unlimited possibilities. Writing clearly and to the point, Brady empathizes with his readers because he knows from experience that losing an eye is a seminal event. But he balances the importance of this loss with a believable you-can-do-this attitude. As a parent, I am grateful for Brady’s gentle encouragement; for my daughter, this book has set her free.”
