[MusicTlk] Piano lessons

[jovian3]

Thanks for your replies Ella, Debbie and Jessica. Here is my first question. I have RP so I still have some vision but that vision can vary greatly depending on many factors. In the best conditions, I can see the notes on the piano. In the worst, I cannot. I find myself using my eyes to guide my fingers sometimes and I am wondering if this is having a negative impact on my playing abilities. Should I for example close my eyes when playing going forward?
