Book Visual Impairments

    Book Details:
  • Author : National Research Council
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2002-08-17
  • ISBN : 0309083486
  • Pages : 369 pages

Download or read book Visual Impairments written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-08-17 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When children and adults apply for disability benefits and claim that a visual impairment has limited their ability to function, the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) is required to determine their eligibility. To ensure that these determinations are made fairly and consistently, SSA has developed criteria for eligibility and a process for assessing each claimant against the criteria. Visual Impairments: Determining Eligibility for Social Security Benefits examines SSA's methods of determining disability for people with visual impairments, recommends changes that could be made now to improve the process and the outcomes, and identifies research needed to develop improved methods for the future. The report assesses tests of visual function, including visual acuity and visual fields whether visual impairments could be measured directly through visual task performance or other means of assessing disability. These other means include job analysis databases, which include information on the importance of vision to job tasks or skills, and measures of health-related quality of life, which take a person-centered approach to assessing visual function testing of infants and children, which differs in important ways from standard adult tests.

Book Perimetry with and Without Automation

Download or read book Perimetry with and Without Automation written by Douglas R. Anderson and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The first edition of this fine textbook, entitled Testing the Field of Vision, was published in 1982. Since then, there has been a virtual revolution in the area of automated perimetry, especially in glaucoma. Dr. Anderson has appropriately responded to this revolution with a second edition and a new title for his book: Perimetry: With and Without Automation. Much has been added in the area of automated perimetry and much has been carried over from the first edition, which emphasized manual field examination."--Proquest.com viewed July 1, 2022.

Book Biophysical Properties in Glaucoma

Download or read book Biophysical Properties in Glaucoma written by Ingrida Januleviciene and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview on new insights in glaucoma, the latest technological developments, scientific achievements, and novel research leading to new paradigms in glaucoma diagnosis. Readers will discover a broad picture starting from theoretical perspectives in diagnostic criteria followed by practical examination and clinical interpretations while highlighting potential pitfalls and limitations in analysis. Non-invasive, modern technologies allowing visualization and quantification of various parts of the human eye are fast evolving and improving interpretation of modern diagnostic possibilities are essential to fill the gap between sophisticated equipment, complex clinical data, and the need for precision-medicine based interpretation. Issues such as the importance of intraocular, intracranial, and ocular perfusion pressures (IOP, ICP, OPP) in the pathogenesis of glaucoma; and imaging modalities for examination of the optic nerve head, retinal fiber layer, and visual field assessment in glaucoma are explored in these chapters. The problem-based learning approach presented herein offers a succinct go-to-guide to read and discover answers.​
