Terry Campbell holds a magnifying glass up to his right eye. A light shines from it as he reads information from a sheet of paper.He’s counting all the items that make up the display of Christmas miniatures which takes up the entire dining room in his Chilliwack home.“He has been legally blind since 2018,” his wife Kay said.
The Christmas miniatures display started back in 2007 when Terry still had decent vision. They were out shopping around Christmastime and Kay saw a small display of some miniature buildings set up in a store in Maple Ridge. A ski lift moves chairs and gondolas up and down a mountain while, at the bottom, a parade marches through the village. The train rolls around Santa’s lit-up amusement park and then through a tunnel. Across the village, people are ice skating and playing hockey, while others stay warm beside tiny campfires. There are rows and rows of houses and shops, plus a fire station, an outdoor stage, the ‘KOLD’ radio station and so much more.A detail of Terry Campbell’s Christmas miniatures display.
People are considered legally blind if their best eye has 20/200 vision or less with the help of glasses or contact lenses. Someone with 20/200 vision means they cannot be more than 20 feet away to see what a person with normal vision can see from 200 feet away.
