SPA-Neuro SIG Webinar: Low Vision Rehabilitation in Occupational Therapy

Low vision, a condition that can’t be corrected by glasses or medical intervention, significantly impacts daily life for individuals with conditions like macular degeneration, glaucoma, or brain injuries. But how can healthcare professionals help? 

This webinar led by Dr. Debbie Boey, Principal Occupational Therapist at Tan Tock Seng Hospital, will explore how occupational therapy can empower individuals with low vision to regain independence. You’ll learn about essential interventions such as visual skills training, adaptive devices, and environmental modifications that help individuals with low vision participate in daily activities. You’ll also discover how physiotherapists can complement these efforts, especially for patients recovering from brain injuries. 

By the end of this session, you’ll be able to:

• Recognize common eye conditions causing low vision 
• Understand the key assessments and treatment strategies used by occupational        therapists 
• Identify patients who can benefit from low vision rehabilitation 
• Explore how physiotherapists can support low vision rehabilitation during therapy      sessions 

Don’t miss out on this chance to enhance your practice and improve patient care!
