Who I Support
Vision2Brain provides functional vision assessment and individualised visual skills training for children, young people and adults experiencing difficulties with functional vision.
Children & Young People
Does your child...
Take longer to find a toy, object, word or picture they are looking for?
Have difficulty finding information on a busy page, worksheet or in a book?
Lose their place, skip words or lines, or need to use a finger when reading?
Become tired or lose concentration during reading, drawing or other visually demanding activities?
Have difficulty reaching for objects, catching a ball, copying, drawing or moving around obstacles?
Need more time to find their way in unfamiliar places, especially when the environment is busy?
Functional vision assessment and visual skills training may be relevant for children with:
- Cerebral visual impairment (CVI)
- Visual impairment
- Congenital or aquired neurological conditions
- Neurodevelopmental conditions
- Vision-related difficulties affectting learning
-Â Difficulties with visual attention and understanding of what they see
- Difficulties coordinating vision and movement
- Complex developmental or sensory needs.

The focus is on understanding how the child uses vision during play, learning, movement and everyday activities, identifying their individual strenghts and challenges, and determining what support and training may be appropriate for each individual.
Adults
Has Vision Felt Different Since a Brain Injury or Neurological Condition?
I read more slowly and often need to reread the text to be able to understand.
My ability to use vision changes during the day, especially when I become tired.
I find it difficult to look back and forth between a screen and a document without losing my place.
I sometimes misjudge steps, distances or where objects are positioned.
I need to turn or position my head differently to see something more easily.
I need more time to find a word on a page, an item on a screen or an object among other things.
When I am outdoors, bright sunlight or glare makes it harder to see comfortably, orient myself in my surroundings and can quickly make me feel visually tired.
Vision2Brain supports adults experiencing changes or difficulties in functional vision and using visual information in everyday life.
​
Support may be relevant for adults with:
-
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
-
Other acquired neurological conditions
-
Persistent visual difficulties following brain injury
-
Difficulties with visual attention and understanding visual information
-
Difficulties coordinating vision and movement
-
Visual difficulties affecting everyday activities, work or independence.
​
The focus is on understanding how you use vision in everyday activities, identifying your individual strengths and difficulties, and determining priorities for support and training.
​
New or worsening blurred vision, double vision or other sudden visual changes should first be medically assessed. Once appropriate medical evaluation has been completed, their impact on everyday visual functioning can also be explored as part of a Functional Vision Assessment.
