This is a medical classification for people with visual impairments.[1]Unlike other blind sport classes, it only uses visual acuity for the purpose of being classed into it.[2]BlindSports SA defines this classification as "This is from visual acuity above 6/60 up to and including visual acuity of 6/24 (up to 25%). No visual field is considered."[3] USABA defines this classification as "from visual acuity above 20/200 and up to visual acuity of 20/70 and a visual field larger than 20 degrees in the best eye with the best practical eye correction."[4]

HiI have heard of B4, not sure if this classification is only in sports asI've never found it in any definition of visual impairment but how would itthen differ from B3?Thanks.Ricky Lomey_______________________________________________SportsandRec mailing listSportsandRec at nfbnet.orghttp://nfbnet.org/mailman/listinfo/sportsandrec_nfbnet.orgTo unsubscribe, change your list options or get your account info for SportsandRec:http://nfbnet.org/mailman/options/sportsandrec_nfbnet.org/whitecaneracer@gmail.com
