OTHER LINKS

     The links on this page are a combination of those I feel are significant to furthering the adjustment to blindness, as well as sites that I have been asked to list by web masters who have written and offered to exchange links. Note that I do not intend to create a large list of links, fore I believe others have done that and I'd rather get you to them, then me having to take the time to search out and maintain a large links page. So under the sections of "Blindness Information" and "Blindness Products/Services" you will find sites relating to adjustment and living successfully with blindness. Finally, under the section labeled "Other Important Information" you will find links to other sites related to some type of health care and/or services.
