Kaitlin is 27 years old and a full-time student at Kean University. She has worked at Crabs Claw in Lavallette for six years, but her current medical condition has forced her to go on disability.
My niece Kaitlin was born with a peripheral cataract and coloboma of the retina and iris in her left eye. This left her blind in that eye from birth. After spending 18 years navigating sports and academics with 50% vision, doctors discovered she had a partial coloboma in her right eye.
