Visual Function: A Theoretical Model for Individuals with Low Vision.

Corn, Anne L.

Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v77 n8 p373-77 Oct 1983

The model is explained to be useful in determining how to elicit visual behaviors or maximize visual function in persons with low vision. (Author/CL)
