Cortical Visual Impairment: Assessment and Treatment Dr. Christine Roman-Lansky -- March 23-24, 2019
This two-day workshop will provide an overview of cortical visual impairment (CVI) and the importance of early diagnosis and common diagnostic issues. Functional vision in children with CVI can be measured using an evaluation tool called The CVI Range. The CVI Range is used to determine the level of effect of CVI on a zero to ten scale. The use of the range, and set of numbers can assist to design interventions. The CVI intervention can diagnostically match the interventions to that assessed level. The child is encouraged to use their vision in functional routines, in meaningful activities, by making adaptations to materials and environments based on the assessed score; we can then encourage use of vision in a meaningful way
OBJECTIVES: The participant will be able to:
1. Describe the diagnostic criteria used to identify CVI 2. Describe how to assess children carefully using The CVI Range 3. Design programs for children to use their vision in meaningful ways throughout their day 4. Monitor and adjust the program according to the needs and changes of the child
