BLINDNESS
IDEA
Developmental disability
significantly affecting verbal and
nonverbal communication and
social interaction, generally
evident before age three, which
adversely affects a childs
educational performance. Other
characteristics often associated
with autism are engaging in
repetitive activities and
stereotyped movements,
resistance to environmental
change or change in daily routines,
and unusual responses to sensory
experiences.
Concomitant [simultaneous]
hearing and visual impairments,
the combination of which causes
such severe communication and
other developmental and
educational needs that they
cannot be accommodated in
special education programs solely
for children with deafness or
children with blindness.
UN CONVENTION
The United Nations family has
promoted the rights and well-being
of the disabled, including children
with developmental disabilities.
The Convention on the Rights of
Persons with Disabilities entered
into force in May 2008. Its purpose
is to promote, protect and ensure
the full and equal enjoyment of all
human rights and fundamental
freedoms by all persons with
disabilities, and to promote respect
for their inherent dignity. (Source:
Text of the Convention, article 1) It
is a solid tool to foster an inclusive
and caring society for all and to
ensure that all children and adults
with autism can lead full and
meaningful lives.
People who are blind or visually
impaired need access to the same
technology as others: to
use mobile phones or computers
and access websites on the
internet, the use of automated
bank machines and direct payment
machines in stores, or the ability to
read the screens in airports, bus
terminals, or government kiosks in
order to access important
information, as well as the ability
to vote with a secret ballot (like
others) and have their vote be
counted and still be private. All of
this should be provided without
incurring extra financial expenses
to be able to access society in the
same manner as others.

INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY
DSM IV
Intellectual disability is defined as
a
condition
marked
by
an
intelligence quotient (IQ) of 70 on
the most recently administered
psychometric test. In the absence
of an IQ score, a written statement
by a psychometrist that, in the
context of testing, a childs
intellectual functioning falls within
the intellectual disability range is
acceptable.
The
severity
of
intellectual disability is defined
according
to
the
following
International
Classification
of
Disease, Ninth Edition, Clinical
Modification (ICD-9-CM) categories:
mild (an IQ of 50-70), moderate
(an IQ of 35-49), severe (an IQ of
20-34), and profound (an IQ of
<20).
DSM V
is characterized by deficits in
general mental disabilities such
as reasoning problem solving
planning abstract thinking
judgment academic learning
and learning from experiences.
The deficits result in
impairment of adaptive
functioning, such that the
individual fails to meet standard
of personal independence and
social responsibility in one or
more aspects of daily life
including communication social
participation academic or
occupational functioning or
personal independence at home
or in community settings.
