Program on working with blind presented to Milford Lions Club

Dennis Cory, a resident of Hamburg, West Germany, and a Milford native, presented a program on his work with the blind children and adults of West Germany Monday night for the Milford Lions. Cory described his work as an attempt to encourage blind people to function independently in their environment. “My job is to work with people to see what they can do with their hearing and their sense of taste and touch.” Cory emphasized two projects that are partially sponsored by a Hamburg Lions Club summer .camps for blind children and adults, both he finds a highlight of the year. He also explained the working of a dog in assisting the blind and how it relates to the Indiana Lions’ sponsored Leader Dog School. Cory listed the most common causes of blindness as diabetes, cataracts, glaucoma and hereditary diseases of the eye and he stressed the importance of annual eye exams to catch potential problems before they develop. Ultra-sound and the impact of electronics were scored as the up-and-coming developments in assisting the blind. Cory, along with his wife, Pam, have been employed by IRIS, a private non-profit organization for 10 years, and they both also teach at Hamburg University. Cory is the son of Neal and Arlene Cory of Milford and will be visiting in the states for the next two weeks.
