Default Blind Yorkies

Ok, it's been a REALLY long time since I've had a completely blind dog. Lily doesn't appear to be able to see at all. She's actually adapting pretty well, but is there anyone else that can give me advise on how to make the transition easier? So far, no accidents and she's eating wonderfully (I have to smile, the shelter said she'd barely eaten the entire time there!), but if she can hear me and can't get to where she can touch me, she starts crying because she doesn't know where she is. She will also wonder into a corner and can't figure out how to get herself out of it. I tried crating her when I can't be right there with her, but the crate really freaked her out when she kept bumping into the sides of the crate, so for now I'm just baby gating her into my bedroom when I can't closely supervise her.
