Preferred term

visual impairment across the life span  

Definition

  • Visual impairment is a broad term used to describe vision loss in individuals who are totally blind, functionally blind, or legally blind, or who have low vision. Like those who are totally blind, individuals with functional blindness will rely on the auditory and tactile senses for learning.
