Professional guidance helps The book itself is easy to pick up and read. Its value comes from applying the ideas to one person's situation, and that goes better with a teacher of students with visual impairments, a counselor, or another professional. That is why professional input is recommended, though not required.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This book looks at how self-esteem develops, how people feel about blindness, and how they adapt to it. It is a long-standing title in the field. It is a reading resource, not a device or a program, so it works best as background for the professionals and families who support someone adjusting to vision loss.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Nothing to set up. Read the book on its own or alongside the person you support.
  • With a guide
    1. Pick chapters that fit the person's situation, such as changing attitudes or building confidence, and read them first.
    2. Talk through what you read with a teacher of students with visual impairments, a rehabilitation counselor, or another professional. Plan for a few sessions to put the ideas to use.
