    Info on the blind
    How expressive are blind people in their conversations?

    How directly do they look at each other, or how do they face each other?

    Maybe give me some good web sites for some info on the blind.

    My dog guide work frequently brings me into contact with those with limited or no vision. Talking to them is just like talking to anybody else. Talking is about sound. People usually face each other when they are talking, not to see the other person, but that is how our ears are set up to work the best. The low vision people make eye contact. That is not to discount facial expressions and gestures for those of us with better vision.

    I looked over my horde of websites, and I don't have any specific to the blind. Rather than doing a search, I will leave that up to you.

    David Blunkett manages just fine!

    YouTube - Mike Ion talks with David Blunkett
    He's the guy on the left.
    I'm not that big on politics but I saw him on a chat show the other night and I think he's a really funny man, very sharp. You might not get the jokes on this clip though as they are mostly about british politicians.

Legally blind? [ 1 Answers ]

I took my daughter for an eye exam today and she is 20/200 in one eye and 20/100 in the other eye for distance. 20/20 in both eyes for near. I know that 20/200 is considered legally blind but does that mean she must be 20/200 in both eyes for both near and distance?
