Different social groups each make efforts to achieve health, and due to their social status, they also face obstacles to achieving health. Among them, blind and combination women also have unique experiences in They have this background. This phenomenological study analyzes the efforts of blind and partisan women in the context of their life experience and also the obstacles to their progress in Kashan. In this regard, using purposive sampling with the criterion of theoretical saturation, 25 blind and combo women were selected for in-depth interviews. The interviews were then analyzed using Brown and Clark thematic analysis. After extracting the appropriate codes, two main themes with the titles of health-centered agency and perceived barriers to health have been obtained. Health-oriented agency includes actions and actions that are in the field of awareness of individuals and occur to maintain, improve or promote health. And has the sub-themes of basic health presuppositions, conscious prevention in order to maintain health, reconstruction and treatment, and measures that are detrimental to health. Perceived health barriers also refer to macro-social categories that restrict the realization of health in blind and visually impaired women outside the will of individuals and contain sub-themes of economy-based health, harassing behaviors. Society is a disabling social context and a challenge to the institution of treatment and the passive family.

Some of the needs of people with disabilities, however, require special consideration and special planning, such as marriage and family formation. Objective: Considering the necessity of marriage in this group, the aim of this study is to determine the effective variables and barriers of marriage for persons with disabilities and to obtain a model of these factors in order to plan and act effectively in this field. Method: Previous research and interviews with four groups of disabilities, disabled families, center officials and specialists have been used to obtain these variables. The method used for analyzing the relationships between variables is ISM's interpretive structural modeling that measures the effectiveness and effectiveness of the variables on each other. It was also determined using MICMAC analysis. Results: Findings show that the factors affecting the type and severity of disability are the most influential variables in the model. Then, the type of society's attitude towards disability and lack of organizational and legal mechanisms are also important factors in removing barriers to marriage. Conclusion: According to the results, it is necessary to address the challenges of the mentioned barriers with priority of education, prevention and reform of attitude and action in the field of sound policies.
