Assessment and Training of Low Vision Clients for Mobility.

Dodds, A. G.; Davis, D. P.

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v83 n9 p439-46 Nov 1989

The article describes the development of a visual assessment and training program designed to predict initial and final low-vision mobility performance. The program's tasks were determined to be better predictors of visual performance than existing clinical measures, and task learning could be transferred to real-life mobility situations.
