Sabah-born Ahar Tabe's photograph 'Galeri', which is part of the 'Sensory Photography' exhibition in KL. Ahar suffered visual impairment since childhood. He is able to make out vague shapes and colours without any details. Now in his early 20s, he is using the camera as a tool for self-expression. Photos: Handout

They all have their stories to tell. Jamaliah Mohd Yasin’s world went dark, literally, after being diagnosed with glaucoma. Rashidi Abdullah gets by with partial tunnel vision, knowing that it is only a matter of time before he loses his vision entirely. Theng Sze Young, an engineer by profession, lost his sight in a car accident.

But today, they are among the blind and visually impaired group whose works are featured in a photography exhibition at Ruang by ThinkCity in Kuala Lumpur.
