Cortical visual impairment is the leading cause of visual impairment in children. All children with CVI should be considered visually impaired.
Ten Characteristics of CVI
1. Color: Does the child attend to certain colors?
2. Movement: Does the child attend to moving materials?
3. Latency: Does the child need a long time to look?
4. Visual Field: Does the child see in one visual field better than in other visual fields?
5. Complexity: Visual Complexity, Auditory Complexity, and Positional Complexity.
6. Light Gazing/Non-purposeful Gaze: Does the child always look towards light/seem not to look?
7. Distance: At what distance does the child see?
8. Visual Reflexive Response: Does the child blink to touch and visual threat?
9. Visual Novelty: Does the child like familiar things and seem to ignore new things?
10. Visual Motor: Does the child reach? Do they reach while looking? Do they play while looking?
