excel – AutoFilter – Find out if second row of Visible Cells is blank

I have some code that autofilters a worksheet based on either the first criteria, and then the second if no criteria is returned. The conditional statement is where I need help, it keeps on erroring even if there is data in the first cell of the second row (I obviously don’t want to include the headers):

With ActiveSheet
    .AutoFilterMode = False
    With .Range("A1:F1")
        .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="FirstTest"

        'See if first cell in second row is blank
        If (.Offset(2,1).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Value = "") Then

            'if blank, change criteria
            .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="SecondTest"
        End If

   End With
End With

I know you can use VBA.Array’s for multiple criteria, but this gets more complex, I merely need to now how to reference the visible data in the second row.

Thankyou in advance for any assistance.

With ActiveSheet
    .AutoFilterMode = False
    With .Range("A1:F1")
        .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="FirstTest"

        'See if first cell in second row is blank
        If (.Parent.AutoFilter.Range.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Count < 2) Then

            'if blank, change criteria
            .AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="SecondTest"
        End If

   End With
End With
