Psychosocial Problems of Children with an Inborn Visual Impairment

I'm dealing with the problems of a children with an inborn visual impairment from availible literature in my work. From world history, where I detect the first mentions about the disability and some reactions to it, I'm gradually getting in a time into the current situation and systems support in the Czech Republic, especially I mentionan an Early intervention. This topic is followed by a brief overview and some history of the compensatory tools for the visually impaired, which has an irreplaceable place in the life of disabled children (adults too) and it's very helping to them in a daily life. In a next chapter I deal with the classification and characteristics of particular visual impairment where I mention the most common birth defects of the eye, then their causes and division into the groups. Then I mention the specific needs of these children where I analyze their personal development, communications, plays and toys, environment, special needs according to the age and also education at schools. There I make a detail focus on the concept of integration and specifics of early and preschool age mainly, but also I describe other terms for the integrity of my work. I also emphasize the importance of the family and its influence and the ways how child copes with the defect. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org
