Flashcards

What is Visual Impairment?

A broad term encompassing various types of visual impairments, ranging from mild vision loss to total blindness.

What is functional vision?

Refers to the ability to use residual vision effectively. It involves strategies and devices that maximize visual function.

What are low vision aids?

These are devices and strategies used to enhance visual function. They range from simple tools like magnifiers to complex electronic systems.

What is vision rehabilitation?

Refers to the process of adapting to vision loss. It involves learning new skills and strategies to maintain independence and quality of life.
