According to My Child without Limits, nearly two-thirds of children with developmental disabilities such as cerebral palsy, mental retardation and epilepsy also suffer from vision loss. The more severe the visual impairment, the more likely are additional health complications and delayed learning.

However, there is training and therapy available. If your child suffers from this particular cerebral palsy symptom, you may want to look into the following resources:

Family Connect, a site for parents of children with visual impairments
 

American Association of Pediatric Opthamology and Strabismus - AAPOS
 

Prevent Blindness America – Children’s page

United Cerebral Palsy, My Child without Limits and the Easter Seals are additional organizations that may be able to assist you in your search for vision impairment resources.
