Blind person

i found this information online,

i do not know if it would help.

things to do:

introduce yourself. identify who you are and what your job or

role is. give the person verbal information that is visually

obvious to those who can see. if you have met before, remind

them of the context; they won't have the visual cues to jog

their memory. be descriptive when giving directions. saying

"over there" has little meaning to someone who cannot see you

point. "four doors after turning right from the elevator" would

be much more helpful. always ask someone if they need your

assistance and how you can assist them. lead someone who is

blind only after they have accepted your offer to do so. allow

them to hold your arm, rather than you holding them. it is

important to let people with vision impairments control their

own movements. many techniques are used as tools for

independence, but individuals with disabilities use only things

that work for them. remember to describe sights or objects from

their perspective, not yours. tell them when you have brought

new items into their environment, describing what they are and,

most importantly, where you have put them.
