Five things to know about Cerebral visual impairment (CVI) | Puja Sarbajna | Narayana Nethralaya

Cerebral visual impairment (CVI) is a condition that affects the brain's ability to process visual information. It is caused by damage to the visual cortex or the pathways that transmit visual information to the brain, rather than by problems with the eyes themselves.

CVI can occur as a result of various factors, including brain injury, infection, or developmental disorders. Children who experience CVI may have difficulty with visual attention, visual discrimination, visual memory, and depth perception. They may also have trouble recognizing faces, objects, or colors.

The symptoms of CVI can vary widely depending on the underlying cause and the severity of the damage. Some children may have mild CVI, while others may have more severe impairments that affect their ability to navigate their environment or participate in academic or social activities.

There is no cure for CVI, but early intervention and specialized therapies can help children with the condition develop strategies to compensate for their visual deficits and improve their overall functioning.
