Before representing South Carolina in the U.S. Senate, I was the head of the South Carolina Commission for the Blind and prior to that, an optician. This morning, I had the opportunity to see the nexus of these three roles. I joined @officialsccb and @Meta at an event where they are donating AI-powered Meta glasses at no cost to blind veterans in our state. I was particularly moved by one veteran who became emotional after being fitted for these glasses because he was able to read his church bulletin by himself. This technology is a game changer for our blind veterans. There are so many everyday tasks that we take for granted, like being able to read a letter from a loved one, identify a household object or navigate unfamiliar surroundings independently. These Meta glasses will make a real difference in the lives of veterans living with blindness. I’m grateful for this partnership between Meta and the South Carolina Commission for the Blind because it’s an ingenious example of how to better serve those who served our country. If you’re an eligible veteran, you can register for upcoming Meta glasses donation events in our state: acbmedia.org/glasses/request…
