Eyeway, Have you heard the recordings of the lectures delivered some years ago for XRCVC? These lectures were specifically for the visually challenged and may help to Initiate the process of career guidance. did read your mail that you wanted a general resource but i don't know of any so I thought that these lectures would help.
