Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Britton, sitting alone by Cloud Video Platform on 27 October 2020, recorded that Mr H Cho is disabled for the purposes of the Equality Act 2010. The judgment states that his disability is partial sightedness by reason of Microphthalmos.
The reasons explain that the claimant was deemed to have a disability and therefore to be a disabled person under the Equality Act 2010 because he had been certified as partially sighted by A S Jacks, Consultant Ophthalmologist, following an examination on 21 December 2015. No monetary award is recorded in the judgment extract.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
