Henner Frebel

Rehabilitation Science Rehabilitation and Pedagogics for the Blind and Visually Impaired, University of Dortmund, Germany; henner.frebel{at}uni-dortmund.de

This article reports on the exchange of ideas at an international conference in San Francisco in April 2005 on the definition, diagnosis and terminology of a condition which is at present variously described as cerebral, cortical or cognitive visual impairment (CVI). Some symptoms are listed, and the condition is compared with, and distinguished from, other visual impairments.
