Assessment of visual perception in adolescents with a history of central coordination disorder in early life – 15-year follow-up study

Central nervous system damage in early life results in both quantitative and qualitative abnormalities of psychomotor development. Late sequelae of these disturbances may include visual perception disorders which not only affect the ability to read and write but also generally influence the child’s intellectual development. This study sought to determine whether a central coordination disorder (CCD) in early life treated according to Vojta’s method with elements of the sensory integration (S-I) and neuro-developmental treatment (NDT)/Bobath approaches affects development of visual perception later in life.
