| Description |
Cortical Visual Impairment is the leading cause of visual impairment in infants and toddlers today. CVI is caused by damage to the brain, typically in the pre-, peri-, or postnatal period. Research conducted on her work has revealed that infants, toddlers, and young children with CVI can and do make progress with very targeted intervention. Day 2 of the workshop Cortical Visual Impairment in the Young Child focuses on assessment, program planning and intervention. Participants will learn how to assess CVI using the 9 areas of assessment as well as have the opportunity to practice actual administration of the CVI Range. Participants will learn how to design a CVI program as well as learn the guiding principles to choosing intervention that are most appropriate for the child.
