All sorts of problems can factor into a car crash, whether they were completely preventable (such as incidents involving a drunk driver) or would have been much harder to avoid (patches of ice on the road). However, those with poor eyesight may cause a crash under a number of circumstances.

Our firm understands that these accidents can be very challenging for victims and those they love, regardless of the factors that caused the accident to occur.
