Understanding Vision Loss

Vision loss can range in severity from partial to complete blindness and can be the cause of several factors such as severe trauma, medical conditions like glaucoma, severe internal eye infection (endophthalmitis), or vascular occlusion (stroke in the eye), or a birth defect. Understanding what caused your clients condition can help you relate to them on how they have been affected by it physically and emotionally.
