Visually impaired disabled women are in a double bind - they are generally considered unmarriageable, but independent living is not acceptable. Bearing the double burden of patriarchy and the stigma associated with disability, they are disregarded, victimised, denied social and economic opportunities, and largely unrepresented in women's rights organisations.
