Corn, Anne L.; Rosenblum, L. Penny
Journal of Visual Impairment & Blindness, v96 n7 p485-500 Jul 2002
This article is the second in a three-part series that provides data from interviews of 162 adult subjects aged 60 and older who stopped driving due to a visual impairment. Part Two describes the availability and use of different forms of transportation, ways subjects access transportation to carry out daily activities, subjects' experiences with drivers, and how nondriving has affected subjects on a personal level. Of special interest is how emotions change over time. [Funding for this research was provided by donations from the Blinded Veterans Association, the Council of Citizens, and Macular Degeration International.] (Contains 3 tables.)
