Visual Environmental Adaptation Problems of Partially Sighted Children.

Kalloniatis, M.; Johnston, A. W.

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v88 n3 p234-43 May-Jun 1994

An analysis of questionnaires completed by 94 partially sighted children and their parents attempted to identify the visual environmental adaptation problems (VEAPs) of children in regular classrooms. Significant VEAPs were found in classroom tasks, in tasks that required the resolution of fine detail, and in some mobility tasks. (Author/DB)
