Abstract
This pilot study investigated the effects of a visual training program for students with low vision. A pre and post design was used. The Beery–Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual–Motor Integration and the Test of Visual-Perceptual Skills were used to assess the perceptual and visual motor skills of fifteen students with low vision. Their mean age was (8.47 ± 1.12); and the mean of their visual acuity of was (0.12 ± 0.11). The three-part intervention program (physical worksheets, a computer-based intervention program, activities of visual perceptual skills) was implemented over four weeks (three sessions/week). Kruskal Wallis tests were used to examine the effect of visual acuity on the progress achieved, and the Wilcoxon-Signed Ranks test was used to identify differences in the scores pre-post intervention. Results showed statistically significant improvement in the visual perceptual and visual-motor integration skills. There was not any statistically significant effect of visual acuity on the progress achieved.
