Discovering that your child has a vision problem can be scary and overwhelming. You might worry and have many questions like:
- Will my baby grow up to be happy?
- Does vision loss affect development?
- Will my child be able to go to school?
- Who can I turn to for advice?
CVI offers parents support and confidence as they journey with their child living with a vision impairment.
