Abstract

Hipoplazija vidnog živca sve je češći uzrok oštećenja vida u najranijoj dobi. To je stanje koje nastaje uslijed nedovoljne razvijenosti vidnog živca u prenatalnom periodu. Kao posljedica često se javljaju strabizam i nistagmus. Hipoplazija vidnog živca može biti povezana sa širokim spektrom zdravstvenih problema, ali i teškoćama u cjelokupnom razvoju djeteta. Zbog teškoća u razvoju koje se mogu pojaviti, dijete je potrebno od najranije dobi uključiti u programe rane intervencije i rehabilitacije. Rana intervencija odnosi se na sve oblike poticanja usmjerenih prema djeci i savjetovanja usmjerenih prema roditeljima. Provodi se od rođenja do treće godine života, a produženo i do sedme godine života. Kao dio rane intervencije provodi se rana rehabilitacija koja podrazumijeva osposobljavanje djeteta s teškoćama u razvoju do pune fizičke, emocionalne, društvene, radne i ekonomske samostalnosti. Kada je kod djeteta prisutno oštećenje vida, unutar rehabilitacije provode se i vidne stimulacije. Vidne stimulacije odnose se na korištenje vizualnih podražaja pomoću kojih se kod djeteta osvještava ostatak vida te ga se potiče na gledanje. Vidnim stimulacijama ne utječe se samo na razvoj vida, već i na cjelokupni razvoj djeteta i funkcionalno korištenje ostatka vida u svim aktivnostima i situacijama. Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je, kroz prikaz slučaja djevojčice s hipoplazijom vidnog živca, prikazati utjecaj vidnih stimulacija na cjelokupni razvoj. Program vidnih stimulacija osmišljen je na temelju procjene vizualnog funkcioniranja i opservacije djevojčice, a provodili su ga roditelji kroz svakodnevne aktivnosti i igru. Program se provodio šest mjeseci, a u tom periodu provedene su periodične opservacije djevojčice. Tijekom provođenja programa, primijetio se napredak djevojčice na svim razvojnim područjima te se produžilo zadržavanje vidne pažnje tijekom interakcije i igre.

Abstract (english)

Optic nerve hypoplasia is one of the most common causes of visual impairment in early childhood. It is a congenital disorder charcterized by underdevelopment of optic nerve. Most infants suffering from optic nerve hypoplasia usually have nystagmus or strabismus. It also can be a cause of a various health problems and developmental delays. Because of developmental delays that can appear, children affected with optic nerve hypoplasia are supposed to be included in early intervention and rehabilitation programms as soon as possible. Early intervention is based on encouraging child's development and supporting child with disability and its parents and family. In early intervention programms can be included children after being born untill the third year of life, or, in some cases, seventh year of life. Rehabilitation, as part of early intervention, tries to encourage child to reach its ful potentials. If child have visual impairment, it is needed to do visual stimulations as a part of rehabilitation. During visual stimulations programms child is encouraged to use its vision during activities by using different visual stimuli. Visual stimulations can affect positively on child's vision and development. Also, child can be taught to use functionally its vision during daily activities and play by using visual stimulations. Aim of this research was to show the influence of visual stimulations on development by showing a case study of a child suffering from optic nerve hypoplasia. Visual stimulations program was based on functional vision assessment and observation of a child.
Parents were supposed to do the activities of visual stimulations program at home during daily activities and play. Duration of program was six months and during that period, child was observed periodically. At the end of the program, it was noticed a progress in development of a child. Also, visual attention was longer during activities and play.
