Aging Eyes

A federal judge has ruled that the U.S. Treasury Department is violating the law by failing to design and issue currency that is readily distinguishable to blind and visually impaired people. CNNMoney

This sounds like one of those decisions that only came down after the decision was made to change money anyway. It is going to cost someone money to make the change and the powers that be decided they needed to make it look like they had to comply with a court order to justify the cost. I've heard the currency in some countries was easier for blind people to identify. I suppose it is about time the U. S. caught up.
This is also a sign of the aging population. Whatever the cost turns out to entail, the aging population is finding that eyes don't always make it as far as the feet.
