2. REMEDIAL VISION REHAB 1: VISUAL INTEGRITY AND VISUAL EFFICIENCY PROBLEMS
| Course Description: |
This course is designed to prepare students to provide remedial vision rehabilitation (vision therapy) for visual efficiency problems (accommodation and binocular vision) while working with optometrists. The course will begin with a complete review of the various treatment modalities available to eyecare professionals when treating both visual integrity and visual efficiency problems in the pediatric and acquired brain injury populations. The history of vision therapy will be explored and areas of controversy will be discussed. Students will be required to review the literature to understand the current evidence about the effectiveness of vision therapy for various visual efficiency problems. Students will have an intensive 5-day, on-site workshop designed to provide them with experience performing remedial vision rehabilitation. Students will work with each other to practice the procedures. Although there will be no direct patient care, students will be able to observe vision therapy in either a pediatric or Rehab Hospital site. |
