What can a 50% visually impaired person carry , like white stick, to make others know he has handicap?

A person with normal physical eyes but with only 50% visual capacity is confronted with the problem of others NOT understanding his limitations. They think he is arrogant and ignores others. What can such people carry , like 100% blinds carrying white cane, so that others understand he has limited visual capacity? A white and red stick in hand? any suggestions

    Totally blind people carry completly white canes. 50%-almost blind carry white canes with 1 red band round it; 50%-slightly visually impaired carry a white cane with 2 red bands.

    White canes are for those who are totally blind. A lot of people have vision problems, but that does not compare to total blindness. If your impairment limits your ability to move or causes problem in walking, you might get a regular nonwhite cane to help you about.

    Describe how your impairment impacts you better, so we can better answer you. Is it your field of vision, or you can only see blurs?
