| Summary |
Vision is a very powerful sense that includes both sensory and motor components that can impact an individual's performance ability. Vision affects a person's ability to perform everyday tasks like walking, dressing and climbing a fight of stairs. It also affects a person's thinking processes such as reading and problem solving. For many individuals with developmental delays, neurological injuries, and illnesses, therapy can be more effective when vision issues are addressed earlier in their rehabilitation program because vision relates directly to balance, attention, coordination, behavior and interaction with people and objects in our environment. Research indicates that nearly 80% of what an individual learns is obtained visually and that 70% of the two million school-age children who have difficulty in reading have some form of visual impairment, such as ocular motor, perceptual or binocular dysfunction. This seminar recording is designed for professionals who are interested in enhancing their clinical skills and therapeutic success by understanding the symptoms of hidden vision problems and their impact on therapy programs. You will gain knowledge of how vision is developed, the role it plays in learning, and how vision affects success in rehabilitation programs. You will discover how hidden vision problems can impact balance, coordination, perception, attention, learning, behavior, and affect participation in school, sports, work, and activities of daily living. You will also learn about testing protocols, treatment strategies, and experience hands-on activities that can greatly enhance successful therapy outcomes of both children and adults |
