Description of CE Program/Activity
 Acuity is the most recognizable indicator of a persons ability to see. However, what is to be done when the client continues to demonstrate difficulty functioning despite their ability to read the eye chart? There are cases where clients have needs that are puzzling to interpret and to accommodate. Learn to detect functional difficulties caused by visual field deficits, a lack of depth perception, and other visual skills deficits. Assist your client to understand and practice environmental adaptations, visual skills training, and integration of other senses in their daily living necessary for confidence, safety, and self-advocacy.
