Supports That Work Together
The PAC Supplies Global Visually Impaired Lanyard and Double Card Holder Set (Model PAC-VILWC) is a high-visibility community access and identification aid designed for individuals who are blind or have low vision. Because many visual impairments are non-apparent when a person is not using a white cane or guide dog, navigating busy public environments such as public transport, shopping centres, airports, and medical clinics can require repeated verbal explanations. Finished in high-contrast yellow with bold "Visually Impaired" text printed clearly on both the neck strap and the included identification card, this lanyard communicates vision support needs at a glance.
Measuring 45 cm in length by 2.5 cm in width and weighing just 30 g, the lanyard is comfortable for all-day wear and includes a quick-release safety mechanism that detaches smoothly if pulled or snagged. The attached plastic double card holder features two slots, allowing the wearer to display the included "Visually Impaired" awareness card on one side while keeping a public transport concession pass, companion card, or workplace ID readily accessible on the other without searching through a wallet or bag.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
- Proactive Community Communication: High-contrast yellow colouring and bold "Visually Impaired" text discreetly alert transport staff, retail workers, and healthcare personnel that the wearer may require visual guidance or extra time.
- Accessible Pass & ID Storage: The two-slot card holder keeps essential travel passes, emergency contact cards, or IDs positioned at chest height, reducing the fine motor and visual demand of locating cards inside a wallet.
- Quick-Release Safety Mechanism: Built-in breakaway release allows the lanyard to unclip rapidly if caught on doors, mobility aids, or obstacles during travel.
- Lightweight Everyday Wearability: Weighing only 30 g with a 2.5 cm wide strap, it sits comfortably over clothing during community outings, appointments, and travel.
Key Features & Benefits
- Matching Lanyard & Printed Awareness Card: Clearly displays "Visually Impaired" on both the 2.5 cm wide yellow strap and the accompanying insert card for consistent visibility from multiple angles.

- Quick-Release Safety Feature: Prioritises wearer safety by allowing swift removal or release if the lanyard is pulled.
- Secure Clip Attachment: Keeps the double card holder firmly attached while remaining easy to clip or unclip when changing cards.
