"The strength of this book compared to other low vision texts, is that it was written specifically for occupational therapists….The text is a worthwhile read for the novice low vision occupational therapist who wishes to gain a general overview of vision loss secondary to age-related conditions." - Beth Barstow, MS, OTR/L, SCLV, Occupational Therapy in Health Care, "Each section is full of information supported by research and practical experience. Appendices provide relevant resource material for those venturing into this area of practice. The content is very detailed and helpful in setting the stage for the work of the low vision therapist and for how an occupational therapist can it into this practice area. This is a very comprehensive practice guide for occupational therapists encountering low vision clients who need help to dress the issues from a low vision rehabilitation perspective or understand what is happening physically and psychologically." -- Marie Gage, Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, "Each section is full of information supported by research and practical experience.

If occupational therapists truly embrace visual rehabilitation, we will have a wonderful new resource to help our low-vision patients. This book does a nice job of making the optics and science easy to understand. I strongly recommend it, not only to occupational therapists, but also to eye doctors who treat low-vision patients."   - Jim Hayes, MD,  Ocular Surgery News,  "Although this book is specifically written for occupational therapists, primary care providers and students will also find value in reading it. The authors are well known and respected experts in the field. Appropriate and helpful diagrams and photographs are included. Important and practical information is added to accentuate the learning process. A helpful section on billing and insurance is also included. Even though this book is geared towards occupational therapists, as a primary eye care provider, I found it helpful and educational. It goes into great detail on the subjects of testing and most importantly the many treatment options available to help most low vision patients today. I plan to use some of the concepts and useful guides in my practice."   -- Brian D.

Synopsis
Low vision rehabilitation is rapidly growing as a specialty practice for occupational therapists. This growth requires practical, evidence-based information on the evaluation and treatment of the effects of low vision on occupational performance. Responding to this need, Low Vision Rehabilitation: A Practical Guide for Occupational Therapists blends standards of practice that have been developed over 50 years by low vision therapists and optometrists, with the latest scientific research and the unique perspective of occupational therapists. Low Vision Rehabilitation presents an emerging model in which occupational therapists practice as part of a team of vision rehabilitation professionals serving adults with low vision. Occupational therapists offer a unique contribution to the vision rehabilitation team, with a focus on meaningful occupational goals, the incorporation of occupation into therapy, and the orchestration of environmental, social, and non-visual personal factors into a treatment plan. Mitchell Scheiman, Maxine Scheiman, and Stephen Whittaker have developed a practical and straightforward text outlining an evaluation approach to interventions that focus on recovering occupational performance in adults. Special features * Incorporates concepts from the AOTA Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process * Provides most of the core knowledge required for the ACVREP low vision certification examination and AOTA specialty certification in low vision * Includes an occupational therapy vision rehabilitation evaluation consisting of four components: occupational profile/case history, evaluation of visual factors, environmental evaluation, evaluation of occupational performance * Emphasizes intervention and low vision rehabilitation treatment including modification of the environment, use of non-optical assistive devices, use of optical devices, and use of computer technology * Provides valuable information on how to start an independent practice in low vision rehabilitation * Includes chapters on diabetic management and electronic assistive technology * Includes access to a companion website with printable forms and additional resources with text purchase Written by authors who are optometrists, occupational therapists, researchers, and certified low vision therapists (CLVT), Low Vision Rehabilitation employs an interdisciplinary perspective that is unique, practical, and credible., Low vision rehabilitation is rapidly growing as a specialty practice for occupational therapists.
