International Desk: A 57-year-old Carmen Jimenez, pretended to be blind for 28 years, so she wouldn’t have to greet people. This incident happened in Spain.

Coming to Details, Carmen told everyone, including her own family, that he lost his eyesight because of Eye Injury. Because she was tired of having to say 'Hello' and 'Hi' to the people, actually she didn’t want to greet anyone.

Recently she revealed that 'she had always been able to see perfectly, which left her family in shock, even though they had always suspected that something was there about her condition.

'She would put on her makeup perfectly, and sometimes she used trying to look at the TV from the corner of her eyes. But she never admitted to faking her blindness, until recently,' Her husband told reporters.

Carmen said that 'I was tired of meeting people on the street and saying hello, I have never been a very social person, and by pretending to be blind I was able to avoid many social responsibilities.'

Carmen Jimenez is now facing legal problems, because she has registered as a blind person, and received special financial aid also.
