A short and simple answer to your lengthy post.

She got the glaucoma in childhood.

In her teen years she had very limited partial sight, she could see changes in light and some partial color...still had already learned how to read Braille.

As an adult is totally Blind because the glaucoma got worse.

Again, basing this on a real person that I know who is totally blind, but loves "Star Trek"....
