Carbon County Active Re-Entry employee Darlene Erni looks through a pair of goggles to discover what it feels like to be blind. The local agency offers supplies and assistance to residents in the local community who suffer from disabilities. Because there are different types of blindness, the agency has several goggles for caretakers and families to use to understand just what life is like with a vision disability.
