(e) It shall be an unlawful discriminatory practice for the owner,
proprietor or managing agent of, or other person having the right to
provide care and services in, a private proprietary nursing home,
convalescent home, or home for adults, or an intermediate care facility,
as defined in section two of the social services law, heretofore
constructed, or to be constructed, or any agent or employee thereof, to
refuse to provide services and care in such home or facility to any
individual or to discriminate against any individual in the terms,
conditions, and privileges of such services and care solely because such
individual is a blind person. For purposes of this paragraph, a "blind
person" shall mean a person who is registered as a blind person with the
commission for the visually handicapped and who meets the definition of
a "blind person" pursuant to section three of chapter four hundred
fifteen of the laws of nineteen hundred thirteen entitled "An act to
establish a state commission for improving the condition of the blind of
the state of New York, and making an appropriation therefor".
