A wonderful initiative that we'd like to highlight: one of the first freely accessible e-learning modules on the Knowledge about Seeing Learning Square is "Visual Impairment and the Eye."
This e-learning course is designed for healthcare professionals who work with clients who (may) have a visual impairment. The module helps them better recognize and understand visual impairments and improve their support.
In 45 minutes, participants will learn:
➡️ What the terms sighted, partially sighted and blind mean.
➡️ How the eye is constructed and functions.
➡️ Which eye conditions are common.
➡️ How to communicate and support effectively.
➡️ And the importance of good lighting and psychosocial guidance.
Upon completion, participants will receive a certificate of participation, which can also be used for accreditation in the free space.
A valuable initiative that contributes to greater knowledge and understanding of visual impairments. This also applies to ADOA(-plus). 👁️💬
