VISION REHABILITATION
DESCRIPTION
Vision rehabilitation is the process of treatment and education that helps individuals who are visually disabled attain maximum function, a sense of well-being, a personally satisfying level of independence, and optimum quality of life. Function is maximized by evaluation, diagnosis and treatment including, but not limited to, the prescription of optical, non-optical, electronic and/or other treatments. The rehabilitation process includes the development of an individual rehabilitation plan specifying clinical therapy and/or instruction in compensatory approaches.
Vision rehabilitation may be necessitated by any condition, disease, or injury that causes a visual impairment which results in functional limitation and disability. In addition to the evaluation, diagnosis and management of visual impairment by an eye physician (optometrist or ophthalmologist), vision rehabilitation may include, but is not limited to, optometric, medical, allied health, social, educational and psychological services.
