As a visually impaired individual I enjoy having assistance with sighted person and I enjoy them telling me where I'm at and where I'm coming up to case I don't know
Pro trick: you can watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Magnus Hudson Definitely, have been using flixzone for since december myself =)
Thank you for the very helpful video. I realised that I did a few things wrong today, when I helped a blind person at the train station.
Sometimes I get and accept help with I need it,but when staff at walmart only tell me that the items that I are in another isle or far away doesn't help me out at all but sometimes somebody will walk me to where the item or items are located in the store and I thank them for helping me out
😮
I’m in a play for Easter acting as a blind person. This was helpful and insightful. Thanks
I’ve found this video to be most helpful. I’m visually impaired and I can give other tips if I may
I’m also visually impaired, too.
In the case of one of my friends, here's NOT what to do. Don't grab them by the arm and drag them across the street. Literally one of my friends waiting to cross the street and some old guy came up and grabbed him and dragged him across the wrong intersection. Both him and the lady who saw it screamed at him to stop but he wouldn't.
Excellent..thank you.....
I am visually impaired, too. When going through doors or up and down stairs without a rail. Allow person to stand behind guide with hand on a shoulder. They can sense the descent and ascent while moving around.
Very helpful! 🙌
Larry,I am also partually sighted with limited vision and I use a white cane with a roller ball tip
Great 👍💪
Definitely now totally blind persons are capable to do much more in orientation and mobility. They even can differentiate colors, books on their colors and authors, cars on their color and models, etc. And to locate any needed object around, even in new environment. And walk confidently along roads and paths on their own without canes or guides.
Very true! We can do so much more than people think. 😄👍
because they have Sharpsenses
God bless you. Amen
😅
could you show side to side difference of the identify cane versus a long walking cane?
Some of this guiding techniques are now becoming outdated, by the day. For it is not included here, the walking technique using and or relying on gps navigation. I myself is a visually impaired person. that is why i know, what i am talking about.
I think the agencies for the blind need to have training for the medical personnel who should know how to work with them .I told my class mates at Ultimate medical academy. I just got my Associates degree in health and human services. What about turnstyles and those streets which go in a circular manner. I need to change my top.
Very true. People need more training, but we are making strides. 😄👍
😊
