Sec. 229.85  Substantial gainful activity by blind employee or child.

    A blind employee or child who is 55 years old or older is entitled 
to an O/M benefit based on disability while he or she is working in 
substantial gainful activity that does not require skills or ability 
used in his or her previous work. However, the DIB O/M or child's O/M 
benefit is not payable for any month in which the employee or child 
works in any type of substantial gainful activity which requires skills 
or abilities comparable to those of any gainful activity in which he or 
she has previously engaged with some regularity and over a substantial 
period of time.
