I found this very interesting I am a 16 year old female, dealing with low vision my entire life, but it has been getting worse lately, and am now having to learn to use a white cane. I don't want to have to use it, like you said i've thought their for completely blind people. But your description of learning while still having vision, and using it has helped me still!! I think I might start using it more often, (not all the time) not quite comfortable using it at school yet!!! Hello!!!

A lot of people think that the long white cane is just for someone who is totally blind, but for many people it enables them to use the vision that they have more efficiently and easily. The long white cane will let them clear the path they are walking in, which frees their vision to look up and watch out for cars or bicycles. If any of your readers are visually impaired and want to learn more about using a long white cane, they can contact our office (329-5400) and ask for Mark O'Brien.
