Abstract
- Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine, in children with congenital glaucoma, the surgical results, the quality of visual perception, the performance in vision-related activities, the level of participation and the child and parental level of stress. The study was designed according to the ICIDH-2/ICF (WHO) and functional vision was evaluated using Colenbrander''s visual ability scales. The functional results of the surgical treatment were measured and the assessment of functional vision pointed to the areas of abilities in need for rehabilitation. After the rehabilitative intervention the impact on the vision-related skills and abilities showed optimisation of visual capacities and greater autonomy. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
