Cortical visual impairment in children

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2006
Cortical visual impairment is rapidly becoming a leading cause of visual loss in children in developed countries predominately because of the improved survival rates of premature infants over the past decade.Most cases of cortical visual impairment arise from hypoxic ischemic injury to watershed areas of the brain.

PHOTOPHOBIA AND CORTICAL VISUAL IMPAIRMENT

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1993
SUMMARYPhotophobia, or intolerance of light, is not completely understood as a symptom. It has beenc divided into ocular and central types. This study shows that persistent, usually mild, photophobia occurs in about one‐third of children with cortical visual impairment (CVI). When the CVI is congenital the photophobia is present from birth, and when it

Understanding Cortical Visual Impairment in Children

The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 1995
Abstract This article presents a review of the literature and a case study on a child with cortical visual impairment. The literature review covers the diagnosis, etiology, prevalence, prognosis, and a comparison of the differences between children with cortical visual impairment and those with ocular impairment.

Cortical visual impairment following birth asphyxia

Pediatric Neurology, 1986
Visual defects are often poorly recognized in children with multiple neurologic problems due to perinatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. We report the clinical, radiologic, and electrodiagnostic characteristics of 20 children with cortical visual impairment secondary to birth asphyxia. Clinical diagnosis often was delayed.

Cortical Visual Impairment in Hypomelanosis of Ito

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 2008
Hypomelanosis of Ito is a multisystem disorder that is thought to be due to chromosomal mosaicism. The authors report a case of cortical visual impairment in an infant diagnosed as having hypomelanosis of Ito. Cortical dysplasia was evident on magnetic resonance imaging and its presence in key areas of the visual pathway may explain the ...

Cortical Visual Impairment

2003
Cortical visual impairment (CVI)is the most common cause of bilateral visual impairment in children in the developed world. In less-affluent countries, the incidence is increasing because the survival rate of premature babies is improving. As a consequence, the mortality of children with complex medical problems has begun to decline.

Cortical Visual Impairment in Congenital Cytomegalovirus Infection

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 2019
Purpose: To describe the presentation, evolution, and long-term outcome of cortical visual impairment (CVI) in patients with symptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, and to identify risk factors for the development of CVI in patients with symptomatic congenital CMV. Methods:

Cortical Visual Impairment Caused by Twin Pregnancy

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1996
To report a possible relationship between twin pregnancy and cortical visual impairment.Three children who had been the products of twin pregnancies were identified as having cortical visual impairment. One child (Patient 2), a dizygotic twin, developed cortical visual impairment after a preterm birth.

Methods of visual assessment in children with cortical visual impairment

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2020
Purpose of review Cortical visual impairment (CVI) is the leading cause of pediatric visual impairment in developed countries. Currently, there is no standardized method of visual assessment in these children, who usually cannot participate in tests designed for typically developing children.
