  • Title: A driving program for the visually impaired.
    Author: Park WL, Unatin J, Hebert A.
    Journal: J Am Optom Assoc; 1993 Jan; 64(1):54-9. PubMed ID: 8454829.
    Abstract:
    This driving program for the visually impaired individual was devised in 1986, as a specific adjunct to the pre-existing training program, designed for the cognitive and physically impaired patients. Two important purposes of the program are: 1) To give the low vision practitioner and staff the capability to be able to recommend a specific training program for telescopic and visually impaired drivers. 2) To try to ensure that every visually impaired telescopic driver (prescribed with a telescopic system by the low vision center) would not only meet legal visual acuity and visual field requirements for the State of Michigan, but would also improve the competency of using their telescopic system for driving.
