We Can Help You Estimate Your Damages Relating to Your Loss of Vision

Depending upon the unique facts and circumstances of your injuries, you may be able to recover substantial compensation for a wide variety of damages you sustained. Non-economic damages refer to intangible losses such as pain and suffering, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life. Economic damages refer to losses including lost wages or medical expenses.

If you have suffered a loss of vision due to the fault of another, we will fight for you to recover maximum compensation for all of your non-economic and economic damages. A loss of vision can have devastating effects on a person’s ability to function in their everyday life. Some of the most common examples of how loss of vision may affect you include:

• Altered or limited daily routine
• Reduced quality of life
• Chronic pain
• Need for ongoing medical treatment
• Inability to perform recreational activities
• Development of depression, anxiety, insomnia, or other psychological conditions

You may be entitled to seek compensation for economic damages, such as:

• Medical bills including emergency room visits, doctor’s appointments, diagnostic tests, surgeries, and medications
• Ongoing medical treatment such as vision rehabilitation
• Adaptive devices such as assistive computer technology and other devices
• Lost wages if you are out of work while you recuperate
• Future lost wages if your vision loss prevents you from returning to work in your current profession

Proving Negligence and Liability in a Loss of Vision Case

The accident that caused your loss of vision may have resulted from someone else’s negligence. Negligence refers to a failure to act with the same level of care that another person would offer in the same situation. When someone acts negligently, they may be legally liable for the accident.

A Bronx loss of vision lawyer with Dansker & Aspromonte Associates LLP can investigate your case to determine whether someone’s negligence caused you to lose your vision.

• If you lost your vision after a slip and fall accident, we will investigate whether the property owner caused the falling hazard, knew about it but failed to fix it, or should have known about it.
