Professional guidance helps The book is simple to open and read, but it is a clinician and educator resource. Its guidance on CVI is most useful when a professional who knows the child helps choose which parts apply, so professional help is recommended rather than required.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

Vision and the Brain is a print sourcebook on cerebral visual impairment (CVI), a vision difference that comes from how the brain processes what the eyes see. It gathers current knowledge about CVI and best practices for working with children who have it. Teachers of students with visual impairments, therapists, and family members can use it as a reference. Because it is a large reference book rather than a hands-on tool, it works best when someone with experience in CVI helps you apply what it says to one child's needs. It is made to order, so expect a wait before it ships.
