The part about someone seeing your cane over a counter, would mean to me that that persons cane is too short. I have seen a few instances when using a cane was a little awkward only because I was handling too many things at once, but my cane is top priority, because it is my eyes. For someone who doesn’t use it correctly, I could see where it might be a problem. I don’t go anywhere without my cane. I have one cane that is not collapsible, that I use when I’m out walking and another one that is telescoping, so it is more convenient. But I always use my cane. I am so greatful for the people at NFB that took the time to make sure I had the correct length of cane and gave me some tips on how to use it. I used a cane before NFB but they showed me how to use it better, and the one I had was way too short and very dangerous to use because it was too short. So, there you have it. So, Andrew I don’t know enough about to know what your visual acuity is, and how you use your cane, but if I can help yf I would be very glad to help you with your cane skills if you need that.
