Vision development in paediatrics

In this evening lecture we will be exploring the following questions:

1. Visual development from birth: what is "within normal limits"?
2. How to best assess for visual defects.
3. What are common pathologies we might see as paediatric physiotherapists?
4. Visual processing disorders: does this really exist and how do we manage these children?
5. Helpful strategies to use when engaging with children.
