Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: Tip sheet to Home Modifications for children or adults with vision impairments.

08/18/2022

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: When your child has a visual impairment, it’s especially important to organize your home in ways that will protect him/her from possible injury. Child-proof your cabinets. Keep household cleaners and medications of any kind in cabinets that can’t be opened by your child. You can get keyless locks that are easy for you to open but difficult for children.

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: When your child has a visual impairment, it’s especially important to organize your home in ways that will protect her from possible injury as well as enable her to develop good basic skills. Keep room and closet doors closed, or put a heavy object against a door to prop it all the way open.

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: When your child has a visual impairment, it’s especially important to organize your home in ways that will protect him/her from possible injury as well as enable her to develop good basic skills. Tape down the edges of small rugs so that they don’t suddenly slip or slide, possibly causing a fall.

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: Your child may use clues, such as the difference in surface between the living room carpet and the tile floor in the kitchen, to help him/her orient herself in your home. Look for tactile clues you can add around the house to increase his/her orientation to your home and to assist with his/her mobility. For instance, you could put a small rug or textured mat near the window to help him/her find his/her toy box in the family room.

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: Most children who are visually impaired know the layout of their own homes well. They typically don’t use a cane to get around at home but may use trailing once they have learned to walk and are past toddlerhood. When your child trails, she places the back of her hand against the wall slightly in front of her as she walks so that her hand warns her of any obstacle that she might bump into. If your child uses trailing, it will be important to keep hallways and floors clear. Avoid hanging pictures on the wall at the height of your child’s hand.

Children's Vision and Eye Health Awareness: Regardless of your child’s amount of usable vision, encourage him/her to use his/her sense of touch to gather information about where things are in your home. In the bathroom, for example, you might put a rubber band around the handle of his/her toothbrush so s/he can be sure it’s his/hers and not someone else’s.
