Are you/do you support someone with CVI from the UK who is 16 or older? We are recruiting for 2 research projects. One is on-line and involves watching some videos, the other you will need to come to St Andrews (travel paid) for virtual reality headset study cvi@st-andrews.ac.uk

3/3 Prof John Ravenscroft @Johnny_Ravo, Uni of Edinburgh, is leading a campaign to change this. Have you or someone you know been affected by CVI not being recognised as a visual impairment, in sports or other areas? Email info@cviscotland.org to share your experience.

2/3 The way Janina’s vision is described is similar to the visual experiences shown in this video. Imagine competing with this vision—and it not being recognised as a disadvantage. Watch here: vimeo.com/899052936

1/3 🧵 Interesting blog from CVI Scotland @scotlandcvi about CVI not being recognised in para sports—featuring an account of how Janina processes vision. Should CVI be classified as a visual impairment in sport? Read more: peroo.sh/5w

Our CVI-SIM programme was used to create this video for our colleagues @arclightprojec1 for yesterday's #smlates exhibition at the @sciencemuseum. @StAndrewsCS @StAndMedicine @UStAResearch
Arclight Project@arclightprojec1

The video, created by our partners @scotlandcvi , attempts to show what it might be like to suffer from vision loss due to the major global causes while moving through the @sciencemuseum .   The Science Museum event was a fantastic chance to showcase our work to the public!

Difficulties for children affected by CVI in mainstream schools can be considerable, affecting not just learning but friendships and mental health. Identifying support is crucial. Great to see one of our videos helped here @scotlandcvi .
CVI Scotland@scotlandcvi

Support in school for a child with CVI requires careful planning, to ensure the needs of the child, as far as possible, can work with the needs of their classes & school, for max inclusion. Example here, mainstream school academically able child with CVI👇 peroo.sh/4K
