Abstract

This article describes our research with Cambodian refugee women suffering from psychogenic blindness as a result of war trauma. We describe our process of learning about the client's functional blindness, their trauma and their culture. It is a story fraught with joy and challenge; it is a story of seeing the world in new ways, through the eyes of women blinded by what they had seen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
