Kid, the total blindness is the complete lack of visual light perception. Total blindness can be called NLP which means no light perception. Your grandpa only has light perception. Maybe it is not blindness. Nowadays different areas have special assistance to determine blindness. There are various governmental jurisdictions have formulated to define legal blindness.
