partial sight
Seeing, but poorly
Partial sight is vision that is significantly impaired but not completely absent—enough remaining sight to be useful but not enough for normal function.
The term appears in medical and legal contexts to distinguish those with limited vision from the totally blind: She was registered as having partial sight after the accident.
Also called low vision.
