Facility provides home for partially sighted, blind seniors

SHENYANG — As the radio echoed through the yard at lunchtime, a group of partially sighted and blind seniors navigated their way to the canteen, their hands gliding along the guardrails.

Chef Bai Yajuan used a microphone to read the menu aloud. Six bowls of varying shapes and sizes, arranged in a set order, each containing a different dish, were served.

"Many blind people mix all their dishes into one bowl at home to avoid trouble and not burden their families," Bai explained.
