Returning to Work after the Onset of Visual Impairment.
Jeppsson-Grassman, E.
Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v83 n5 p241-44 May 1989
The employment conditions of Swedish adults, aged 25-45, with recent onset of visual impairments were examined. A qualitative study identified phases in the rehabilitative process of adapting to work environments. Interviews with 261 persons found that the majority returned to work after onset but in many cases were underemployed. (Author/JDD)
