The author, himself legally blind for 30 years, fulfills that promise with precise information and guidance on improving life through visual rehabilitation. The book explains fundamental facts about eyes and vision, including the causes and varieties of blindness, and then moves on to the new skills the partially sighted person must learn. Specific approaches and devices are covered in depth, including eccentric viewing and driving with telescopic glasses, and the visual and electronic aids that can help overcome the effects of vision loss. In spite of his own limited vision (20\/240), Dr. Chapman uses a computer without a voice synthesizer, watches TV, and even drives, and he shows readers how to do the same.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bill Chapman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hunter House Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/27\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 7.25w x 0.77d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780897933162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eChapman, Bill:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eBill Chapman, Ed.D., \u003c\/b\u003e has been a consultant for the visually impaired for 30 years.
