Redefining What It Means To See
This is not a story about loss, it’s about seeing differently.
At Thirteen, My World Changed In An Instant
I lost the clarity of my sight to a rare retinal disease and with it, the way I understood everything around me. What followed were years of surgeries, uncertainty, and a quiet, invisible grief. The kind that doesn’t just change what you see… it changes how you live.
But somewhere in that loss, something unexpected began to take shape. I started to understand that vision isn’t just about sight. It’s about how we choose to see our lives, especially when they no longer look the way we imagined.
About The Book | I See You by Meredith Kole
This book is more than a memoir. It’s a reflection of what it means to lose clarity and find something deeper in its place. It’s an invitation to see yourself differently. To find meaning in the moments that feel uncertain. To realize that even when your vision changes… your perspective can become stronger than ever.
Today, my mission is bigger than my story. I am committed to helping people see differently and to helping shape a future where technology, especially AI, has the power to restore sight and expand what’s possible for those living with visual impairments.
Because this isn’t just about what we’ve lost. It’s about what we can create.
Through I See You, partnerships, and advocacy, I am building something rooted in resilience, purpose, and hope.
I may not see the world the way you do. But I’ve learned how to see it in a way that can change everything.
