Description |
This presentation will describe a number of visual impairments diagnosed from birth to 3, including cerebral/cortical visual impairment (which is often undiagnosed). In addition, the referral process will be discussed, with an emphasis on qualifying visual impairments, associated conditions, and red flags for visual impairment. The hearing portion will discuss what hearing loss is, warning signs, type and degrees of hearing loss, amplification options, tips and tricks, and communication options. How and when to make a referral and what a DTH does will also be reviewed.
