This article reports the results of a 1987–88 follow-up study of 69 out of 92 legally blind persons who were children in the original 1973–74 study. Semistructured psychiatric cointerviews were conducted to determine how well the participants had fared compared to the prognoses in the first study. Overall, it was found that they were functioning as well as or better than expected.
