Blindness Novels & Stories

I suffered alone. Because that’s what blindness does. It doesn’t just hurt you. It destroys everyone around you, and you don’t even realize you’re doing it until it’s too late to take any of it back. I was pregnant. And he didn’t know.

My vision blurred. And then—darkness.

It coated every inch of my being and I found myself leaning dangerously close to him, instead of pulling away. “Why are you leaning so close to me?” He blurted and my eyes widened, immediately realizing that the hell I was doing. I jumped away from him, clearly my throat awkwardly as I lied, “I was just testing how blind you are. Apparently, not blind enough.” “Ouch!” He chuckled. “I'm not sure if that is an insult or not. I am blind in the sense that my vision is blurred out sometimes. I can see things to an extent depending on the lighting. I can see movements, colours, just the blurred version. Same with people.”

He said soon Lavina would see the whole things in the world. Her heart was beating fast. Feeling immeasurably nervous when she heard the doctor's words. Was it true that she would be able to see soon? For the first time in her life she would be able to see again. He said that Lavina was lucky because her blindness was caused solely by corneal damage only, so her eyes could be saved. And that was the surprising fact. The doctor predicted Lavina was born with normal eyes but not sure what happened to her that caused her to go blind. It was really bad Lavina wasn't immediately treated.

“Unfortunately you can’t do much for her training. But yes, you’re both going to need each other to face things ahead. However, her training is going to be a little more difficult now that her sight is back.” Levantus looks thrown and confused while Odessa tilts her head in consideration. “What do you mean? Odessa getting her sight back should be a strength.” Odessa suddenly realizes what’s being said. “Because vision is a distraction. After not having it for so long, it’s loud in its existence. Being blind, I had to focus on all of my other senses, including internally to survive. She’s saying it’s going to be harder to focus like that with having my eye sight back.”

Gwan who are both shocked. "What?" Jung-Ho raises his voice, making Mrs. Gwan hold his hand. "Yes Mr. Gwan, At first we thought it was because she was unconscious for a month but unfortunately nothing worked on her. It will take time to get her vision back." He looks at them and continues. "But, we are not sure there are only 2% chances." He continues and pauses while glancing at Mrs. Gwan and Jung-Ho. "What do you mean?" Jung-Ho asks. "We are sorry Mr. Gwan but we can only hope right now." Dr. Pung apologises again. "What? No, There has to be a solution!" Jung-Ho exclaims while clenching her teeth. "There is nothing else we can do." Jung-Ho's eyes welled up with tears and guilt visible on h

Blind. These suffocating emotions threatened to consume him, casting a forlorn painting over the vibrant tapestry of colors and shapes he had briefly learned to behold. In the face of heart-wrenching loss and an unyielding shroud of blindness, the foundation of hope he had painstakingly built deserted him, shattering like fragile glass.

Sticky. Blood. It trickled into my fingers, a slow tide that felt heavy and suffocating. Panic clawed at me, I tried to open my eyes, but it was useless. The effort itself was painful, and the outlines I once could see were gone. I could only see pitch darkness. My right eye, burned like fire, the pain so strong it sent my whole body tumbling back down when I tried again to stand up. I can't see. It hit my brain like a streak of lightning, and I felt breathless, frozen in fear.

Inside the cabin, however, the silence was absolute—as still and heavy as a moving grave, broken only by the low hum of the engine and the harsh rhythm of Dominic's breathing. Dominic leaned back against the rear seat, his head tilted slightly, his face pale beneath the dim interior light. His eyes had received emergency treatment and cold compresses. The doctors had assured him there was no permanent damage, that the blindness would pass with time and rest. But his vision remained nothing but void. No light. No shape. No shadow. Not even a flicker of grey at the edges. He couldn't see. Dominic closed his eyes, pressing his fingers against his lids as if he co

The doctor said checking the notepad in his hand. "Tell me, doctor, what is it?" Claudia inquired. "Well, I don't want you to worry too much but the blunt force of the accident had injured your husband's eyes and had damaged his optic nerve! He may be blind." The doctor finally said and Claudia wondered if she had heard the doctor right. "What, what exactly do you mean by that doctor?" Claudia asked perplexed. "I'm so sorry!" The doctor simply said. "Doctor, isn't there anything else you can do? Surgery, whatever it takes to make my husband see again." Claudia asked.
