  • Title: [Practical experiences with very young children with vision disorders].
    Author: Helders PJ.
    Journal: Tijdschr Kindergeneeskd; 1985 Feb; 53(1):26-31. PubMed ID: 3992570.
    Abstract:
    Very low vision or blindness affects the sensori-motor development of children. During infancy other exteroceptive stimuli like tactile and auditory stimuli, are being used as a substitute for the loss of vision. The very early motor signs of young neurologically normal infants, are based on this phenomenon. From a retrospective study of 30 very young low vision and blind infants some early motor signs are mentioned, as they can be used in diagnosis and treatment programs.
