[nabs-l] Cane as an ID

Fri Mar 15 02:28:42 UTC 2013

Kaiti:

Part of the reason people are reacting is that all-too-often, people use
"visually impaired", among other terms, as euphemisms to avoid their
considering themselves blind. If I may begently churlish (a contradiction if
I ever uttered one), even you insist upon the need to differentiate between
"blind" and "visually impaired". In the office of an optometrist, oculist or
ophthalmologist, I canunderstand this. But why should it matter for the
general public to know or care? You don't have to explain anything to anyone
and many of us (yes, even those with considerable vision) have just found it
easier to callourselves "blind" and be done with it. No more worrying about
when the lighting is good and when it is not; no more worrying about whether
one might miss a step up or down; in short, sight goes into the background.
That's thereasoning, anyway. You may feel differently and that's your right.
But there's a reason we're the national Federation of the Blind rather than
being the National Federation of the visually Limited. ACB has a Council of
citizens with Low vision; we do not. (wide grin)

Different strokes ...

Mike

Josh,

I don't believe I was on the list at the time of those posts, but
besides that, in my last post I mentioned my reasoning behind using
the term visually impaired.  Your logic works for you and is accurate;
you are totally blind so there is no question about terminology.
However, for those of us with some functional sight visually impaired
is a more accurate descriptor (see my last email for examples why).
I'm sure most people are smart enough to separate the tow meanings of
the word vision; obviously sight has no bearing on one's ability to
form a vision of what they want to do or become in the future, but
they are two separate things.

All I'm asking is for a little more consideration of the perspectives
of people with varying degrees of sight and the reasons for why they
choose to do the things they do.  Just because these choices and their
needs might be different from someone who is totally blind that
doesn't make them wrong.

Arielle, I may not be the best person to shed light on this as I use
my telescopic as a cane too, but I went to a Voc Rehab program for my
state with a girl who had an identity cane but visually didn't need to
use it much.  She would carry it with her to let people know, but her
vision was stable and good enough that she could read slightly
enlarged print, (and I believe she got a provisional drivers license
she can use as long as it's not dark or too bright outside too).  I
guess it goes back to just letting people know; she was very willing
to discuss her vision with people if asked and identified herself as a
visually impaired person, but functionally she had enough sight where
using a cane in most circumstances would have just been something she
didn't need.
