Assessment for Students with Cortical/Cerebral Visual Impairment
Course #: VISN 652
Description:

Students will understand concepts including the limitation of clinical vision functional testing and the need for functional vision testing by a licensed TVIs, O&M specialist and Vision Rehabilitation professionals. Students will show ability to interpret ophthalmology, low vision and neurology reports. Students will learn to effectively perform CVI functional vision assessments and Learning Media Assessments with the consideration that neuroplasticity can lead to visual improvements and that each child needs a unique consideration of all skills and abilities.
