The role of occupational therapy in vision rehabilitation.

The role of occupational therapy in vision rehabilitation. - 107 p.

Chairperson: Andrea Krauss.

Thesis (M.S.)--Touro College, 1998.

One hundred occupational therapists evaluating and treating patients with CNS dysfunction were surveyed to determine if they performed a comprehensive visual screen, if they had received specific training in the area of visual rehabilitation, and if they were referring to a vision specialist such as a behavioral optometrist. Results indicated that specific training does not significantly affect the frequency of vision screening. However, the group who received specific training in vision looked at a mean of 5.65 visual skills, whereas, the group who had not received specific training, looked at a mean of 3.00 visual skills. This indicates that specific training does affect the comprehensiveness of the visual screen. Furthermore, out of 14 primary visual skills that should be evaluated, the mean number of primary visual skills (including both groups) being evaluated was 4.63, which indicates the visual screens being performed are not comprehensive regardless of the amount of training received in vision rehabilitation.

520 $a One hundred and ten optometrists evaluating and treating patients with CNS dysfunction were surveyed to determine what knowledge an optometrist had about the role of the occupational therapist in vision rehabilitation, and if they were referring and collaborating with an occupational therapist. It was found that the role of occupational therapy in vision rehabilitation was discussed minimally or not at all in the optometrist's professional education. The collaboration and referral rate was low regardless of the amount of education the optometrist received on the role of an occupational therapist. The optometrists reported referring and collaborating on a never/rarely basis. However, it was determined that an optometrist that indicated a specialty in behavioral optometry collaborated more (M = 1.08) than those who did not (M = 0.47). The results suggest a need for an increase in collaboration and referral between occupational therapists and optometrists.
