Cerebral Visual Impairment is the most common cause of visual impairment in children in the UK, affecting around one child in every mainstream classroom and more than 50% of children in special needs schools. Acknowledging the the emergence of this area of practice over the last ten or so years and increasing frequency of referrals into paediatric ophthalmology services this 90 minute seminar will offer insights into the identification and diagnosis of Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI) in at-risk groups, focusing in particular on children with profound and multiple disabilities (PMLD). Registrants will be offered practical tools and strategies for implementing the RCOphth CVI CPP into clinical practice and suggested models for care delivery.
