Across China. Retirement home lights up late life of the visually impaired

As the radio echoed through the yard at lunchtime, a group of visually impaired elders navigated their way to the canteen, their hands gliding along the guardrails.

Chef Bai Yajuan used a microphone to read the dishes aloud. Six bowls of varying shapes and sizes, arranged in a set order, each containing a different dish, were served.

"Many blind people mix all their dishes into one bowl at home to avoid trouble and not burden their families," Bai explained. "To allow them to experience the flavors of each dish, we've designed bowls of different shapes to hold each dish separately, so they can easily get what they need."
