Summary/Abstract: There is not a single, commonly accepted definition of disability. All representatives of science stress that regardless of the kind of disability, it does not only refer to the individual, but also to a relation between the individual and society. A society that accepts the fact that there exist things that are imperceptible to the human eye is more likely to accept various disabilities, also those invisible ones.
