In this manual, titled "The development of individuals with visual impairment," basic issues related to the development of individuals with visual impairment are explored. An extensive and comprehensive presentation of the factors and variables that affect the developmental trajectory of individuals with visual impairment is attempted, based on international literature.

The purpose of publishing this particular work is to enrich Greek literature on topics related to the cognitive, linguistic, motor, and socio-emotional development of individuals with visual impairment. The starting point is the fact that children with vision loss or impairment during their development face many challenges and are called upon to manage various issues related to their smooth adaptation to the broader social network.

The extensive development of thematic units and the holistic approach to visual impairment make this book significant for many different groups of readers: educators, students, researchers in the field of special education, specialized scientific personnel, specialized support staff, parents, as well as all those involved in the education and training of individuals with visual impairment.
