Answers:
Legal blindness (20/200 vision with best correction) and low vision (20/70 vision with best correction) is based on your snellen acuity with correction, not your prescription!.

You are only legally blind if while wearing your glasses, you cannot see anything on the chart but the big E!. You have low vision if while wearing your glasses you can only see up to the 20/70 line!.

Your vision, like most glasses wearers, probably corrects to 20/20, 20/30, or 20/40, which would not be considered impaired!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

To be legally blind you must not be able to read any letters on a standard eye testing letter chart even with your glasses on!. It's got nothing to do with your prescription, which by the way isn't terribly strong!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
