EDMUND F. BRENNAN, Magistrate Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between the parties, through their undersigned attorneys, and with the approval of the Court, that the Commissioner of Social Security has agreed to a voluntary remand of this case pursuant to sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). The purpose of the remand is to offer Plaintiff a new decision.
Upon remand, the Appeals Council will instruct the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) to reconsider Plaintiff's vision impairments, including the reevaluation of the opinions of consultative examiner Dr. James Reece, as well as State agency physician Dr. G. Taylor, and explain the weights given to these opinions. The ALJ should re-determine whether Plaintiff's vision impairments are severe, reassess Plaintiff's residual functional capacity, take any further action necessary to complete the record, and issue a new decision.
