A man has been charged after a visually impaired woman was followed and indecently assaulted as she made a train journey across Sydney.

The 23-year-old woman was indecently assaulted by a man while she was in a lift at Ashfield station two weeks ago.

She was then followed on her journey, via Central station, to Sydney's south and indecently assaulted between Jannali and Sutherland stations.

CCTV footage showing a man following the woman, who has a degenerative eye disease, was released by police.

A 25-year-old man was arrested in Merrylands last night and charged with indecent assault.
