Kerry Fitzmaurice, HDTS (Melb CAE), DipAppSci (Linc), DOBA

A pilot program was run to determine if reading efficiency could be improved in visually impaired tertiary students. A review of these students was conducted twelve months post-training. The students were able to maintain the skills of vision training and reading efficiency for an extended period without further training.
