Vision assessment and rehabilitation in low vision

This subjective review of the year's literature on low vision, with particular emphasis on rehabilitation, attempts to search out and discuss what is new and innovative rather than to cover the year's publications with equal weight. The review covers areas of testing and assessment of children and the multiply impaired with low vision, vision stimulation, low vision aids and devices, approaches in congenital and acquired nystagmus, potential advances in high-technology applied to low vision, and psychological and educational aspects including lighting requirements for the elderly.
