This paper foregrounds aspects which create hindrances in meaningful employment of persons with visual impairment in developing countries. The paper then goes on to demonstrate through a case study the sea-change which can be brought about in the present scenario relating to employment by composite interventions of the self-help organizations of the blind. This critical responsibility of the organizations of the blind is highlighted through an analysis of the initiatives of the All India Confederation of the Blind over a period of 35 years. In conclusion the paper hopes to establish that such interventions by organizations of persons with visual impairment can successfully be replicated in other developing countries as well making economic empowerment a reality for all persons with visual impairment.
