Cerebral Visual Impairment

Cerebral visual impairment is a vision problem caused by damage to, or differences in, the parts of the brain that process what the eyes see, rather than the eyes themselves. It is a leading cause of visual impairment in children in high-income countries, often linked to premature birth or brain injury around birth. Support focuses on early assessment and adapting how a child sees and learns.
