  • Title: [Delayed visual maturation--a differential diagnostic challenge. A follow-up study of 13 children with delayed visual development with or without other developmental disorders].
    Author: Diderichsen J.
    Journal: Tidsskr Nor Laegeforen; 1996 Oct 10; 116(24):2883-5. PubMed ID: 8975403.
    Abstract:
    Early visual impairment represents several diagnostic possibilities from specific delayed visual maturation (type 1) with an excellent prognosis to more complex conditions with other ocular or neurological signs (type 2-4). Visual attention and interaction has been an interesting field of study in the interaction between biologically pre-programmed neonatal competencies and social facilitation. From these studies we can probably learn more about ((cloudy)) diagnoses such as cortical visual impairment, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism. Investigations and follow-up of 13 infants who did not show any visual interest at 6 - 12 weeks old are presented, along with proposals for the clinical management of these problems.
