This session will provide participants with an overview of the impacts of vision loss and blindness in young children, birth through three (3) years of age. Various diagnoses, including both ocular and brain-based, will be explored. Participants will learn how vision develops over the first two years of life, and why early identification and services are vital to the development of young children with visual impairments. We will explore national data and current trends to help participants better understand the occurrence of vision impairment across the country.
