Hi Apurwa, I had no plans to reply to this post as others have better expertise and experience over the matter. But I thought I should reply to a point.
I would encourage you to go to a counsellor as you had already in mind for positivity. But in my view please don't limit him to a career advise given by some counsellor who might have a narrow view himself/herself. For instance a counsellor might probably give you 4-5 fields to stay in as other VI are comfortable there, but you never know if any is a good fit or choice for him. Today almost all the fields except defense are accessible for the blind and VI in some way or the other. Look at this list itself: I am an IT Consultant and developer. Some are managers in different fields. Some are in different consulting positions. Various bank positions. Teachers. Assistive tech trainers. Human Resources. Digital Marketing. Social entrepreneurship. That covers a whole good type of jobs and I am not covering everything yet. Apart from that I am a budding archer too and I compete alongside fully sighted archers in competitions and train with them. A South Korean archer who has 2 Olympics gold medals under his belt is VI too. There is almost no limit to what you can opt for a career, and I believe most counsellors might not be able to tell you that if you ask this particular question.
