85. OEP - Optometric Extension Program: Acquired Brain Injury & Hidden Visual Proble Addressing visual problems that may be overlooked during initial treatment of brain injury. http://www.healthy.net/oep/BRAIN.HTM

Hidden Visual Problems Acquired Brain Injury can come in many forms. Below are some common diagnoses: Traumatic Brain Injury Mild Acquired Brain Injury Mild Closed Head Injury Post-Concussive Syndrome Cervical Trauma Syndrome Post Traumatic Vision Syndrome Stroke Cerebral Palsy Cerebral Vascular Accident Essentially, Acquired Brain Injury is an insult to the brain. It can result from a blow to the head, stroke, or neurological dysfunction. This can produce a diminished or altered state of consciousness, and may result in impairment or cognitive abilities, sensory processing and/or physical function. Impairments may be mild or severe; most are amenable to rehabilitation. Specific effects can be: Disturbance of behavioral or emotional functioning Partial or total functional disability Physiological maladjustment Visual dysfunction HIDDEN VISUAL PROBLEMS Often visual problems resulting from Acquired Brain Injury are overlooked during initial treatment of the injury. Frequently these problems are hidden and neglected, lengthening and impairing rehabilitation. Vision is the most important source of sensory information. Consisting of a sophisticated complex of subsystems, the visual process involves the flow and processing of information to the brain. Because there is a close relationship between vision and the brain, Acquired Brain Injury can disrupt the visual process, interfering with the flow and processing of information. The result is a vision problem. Symptoms indicating a vision problem are:

PDF version Susan's Story Susan was 7 years old when she was hit by a car while riding her bike. She broke her arm and leg. She also hit her head very hard. The doctors say she sustained a traumatic brain injury. When she came home from the hospital, she needed lots of help, but now she looks fine. In fact, that’s part of the problem, especially at school. Her friends and teachers think her brain has healed because her broken bones have. But there are changes in Susan that are hard to understand. It takes Susan longer to do things. She has trouble remembering things. She can’t always find the words she wants to use. Reading is hard for her now. It’s going to take time before people really understand the changes they see in her. Back to top What is Traumatic Brain Injury?

Organizations Forums Learning and Other Disabilities Related Articles A Guide to Children's Literature and Disability Definition of Traumatic Brain Injury The regulations for Public Law 101-476, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), formerly the Education of the Handicapped Act, now include Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) as a separate disability category. While children with TBI have always been eligible for special education and related services, it should be easier for them under this new category to receive the services to which they are entitled. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is defined within the IDEA as an acquired injury to the brain caused by an external physical force, resulting in total or partial functional disability or psychosocial impairment, or both, that adversely affects a child's educational performance. The term applies to open and closed head injuries resulting in impairments in one or more areas, such as cognition; language; memory; attention; reasoning; abstract thinking; judgement; problem-solving; sensory, perceptual, and motor abilities; psychosocial behavior; physical functions; information processing; and speech. The term does not apply to brain injuries that are congenital or degenerative, or brain injuries induced by birth trauma. [(Code of Federal Regulations, Title 34, Section 300.7(b)(12)]

94. Brain Injury Index Brain and Head Index Injury page is a resource for brain injured persons and theircaregivers and loved ones to find information and links about brain injury. http://brainindex.com/

From Concussion to Coma your starting point for brain and head injury information on the web. The purpose of this page is to provide a central point for those in need of information about brain injury. These pages are about brain injury advocacy, and the remarkable breakthrough that the Web has made for that advocacy. In the words of Becca Martin from waiting.com: "I remember passing through an emergency room two months post-trauma and seeing a family who reminded me of that first day... I wanted to tell them it would be OK, that it would get better, but I didn't know where to start, what to say." "And then I realized that it was happening all over the world, every day; and when it did, we were so alone, you were so alone." Because of the Web, you are not alone. Unlike Becca and that anonymous family four years ago, today you have the miracle of the Web, the miracle that has brought you here. We believe the Web will make a difference for you, whether you are a survivor, a caregiver, a professional. By creating this page, we believe that we can provide you the information you crave, provide a bridge from the despair that has filled you, and most important, to help you understand that you are not alone. Your journey should begin with these pages: The Brain Injury Information Page, http://www.tbilaw.com

Parents, professionals and other interested individuals are invited to post information or respond to queries regarding children with any developmental delay, brain injury, neurological or genetic condition. Together we can learn about alternative and innovative treatments, therapies, and ideas that support all dimensions of development and health for children with developmental delays and disabilities. We are interested in the respectful consideration and deliberation of all ideas. A panel of experts in homeopathy, naturopathy, complementary medicine, and developmental pediatrics will participate in answering questions, though it is believed that parents and other interested individuals have much expertise to share with one another. The forum is moderated by Sharon Gretz, a parent of a child with neurological disabilities. The moderator will involve members of the expert panel as the need arises. Peter Shefler is our webmaster and makes the entire website beautiful and functional. Please join us in making the forum an exciting place to visit and learn on the internet.

98. Brain Injury Permanency From Concussion Information about injury and recovery.Category Society Law Legal Information Personal Injury......The Subtle brain injury Page is a comprehensive treatment of the impact of what hasbeen mislabeled mild brain injury, concussion or post concussion syndrome. http://subtlebraininjury.com/

Subtle Brain Injury "Concussion, PCS, Mild Brain Injury, Post-Traumatic Syndrome. All of these old labels equal Subtle Damage to Our Minds" Does Concussion involve permanent brain damage? It can. Does Concussion disable? Often, but usually not for extended periods. Will I get better? In all likelihood. If I don't have a full recovery, is it because I am nuts? No. Why is it that some people continue to have persisting problems? That is what this page is about. Subtle Brain Injury Table of Contents email the Brain Injury Law Group Far too much of the focus in the study of what the researchers always call "mild" brain injury, is trying to predict how serious a brain injury will become, based upon the way in which the patient interacts with medical professionals in the acute stage. This misses the point. Certainly, if there was no concussion, there isn't likely to be a brain injury. But once there has been a concussion, the focus should not be on categorizing how serious the concussion was, but on what deficits the person is left with, after a healing period, and what we can do to minimize the disruption of those deficits upon this persons life. Why do some people have apparent full recoveries, while others, are profoundly effected by a similar injury? To begin this discussion, we must summarize our theory of the pathology of subtle brain injury.
