Low Vision Care in Children.

JAPANESE ORTHOPTIC JOURNAL, 1993
ロービジョンの範囲は福祉や教育に関する法律で定められているが,その目的により基準はさまざまである.われわれはロービジョンを「視覚による生活(教育)が可能であるが補助具の使用などなんらかの配慮が必要なもの」と捉え,ケアの対象としている.ロービジョンケアの目的は視覚的能力障害の軽減である.専門的な補助具や特殊な機器,さらには歩行訓練や生活訓練などはロービジョンの専門機関や関連施設に委ねられるものであるが,比較的簡易な補助具の指導は一般の眼科外来で可能である.補助具の選定・指導にあたっては,視力値のみでなく手技の正確性や速さにも留意し実用的なものを選択しなければならない.ロービジョンケアには関連情報の提供も含まれる.各種制度について伝えるだけでなく関連の諸施設についても紹介することが望ましい.
