Orientation and Mobility

A significant and immediate consequence of visual impairment  is the restriction in one’s ability to travel through physical and social  environments and to anticipate and exercise control over potentially hazardous  situations.  The skills needed to move  safely and confidently through an environment are developed through instruction  in Orientation and Mobility (O&M).
