Hi,

I wear 2 Trulife Matrix Supermax foot orthoses for bilateral foot drop, caused by peripheral neuropathy. I have an pip assessment for enhanced mobility.
Do these orthoses counts until the term "aided or unaided" for distance?

Strictly speaking it does not matter if the above term is used, for these to be counted as an aid you need to be unable to reliably complete the same distance on the majority of days without the their use.
