Abstract

The goal of this article is to demonstrate to occupational therapy practitioners how an evidence-based approach to practice can assist them in providing high-quality client-centered care. A case scenario of a client with low vision was utilized to outline the steps of evidence-based practice to answer clinical questions. A critical appraisal of the literature regarding the effectiveness of low vision rehabilitation on quality of life was conducted. The appraisal included 5 quantitative studies and 2 literature reviews. Mixed results were found. A variety of low vision rehabilitation models exist. Informing the client of the current evidence and local services will allow the client to make educated decisions regarding their health care options.
