Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I am Peter Stoffer. Thank you, madam, for the work you do on behalf of all kinds of people throughout the country. My own father, before he passed away, was losing his sight fairly quickly because of the combination of diabetes and other things. He was more worried about that than anything else.
You mentioned war veterans who have not necessarily become blind during their active service but later on in life may be entitled to some benefits, and that's correct. But what about veterans who served in peacetime operations, say from the sixties and seventies, and are now in their late sixties or early seventies and are becoming visually impaired and can't make a connection to any injury during their service, because this happened long after their service?
Are you aware of any benefits that Veterans Affairs has for them?
