Find the Puzzle – Coping With Vision Loss After Brain Injury

Background

Vision loss after acquired brain injury (ABI) often goes unrecognized by healthcare providers due to limited awareness, leaving many (older) adults without the support they need. The Find the Puzzle – Coping with Vision loss after Brain Injury Erasmus+ project (2025–2027) aims to address this gap by raising awareness amongst care providers and pointing towards resources and practices that explicitly support the rehabilitation and habilitation of people experiencing vision loss due to ABI.

Project goals:

The project has two main goals:

1. Map and analyse existing rehabilitation programs that support individuals with vision loss following ABI.
2. Develop open access training materials to ensure that care professionals, caregivers, and policymakers are better equipped to provide access to essential support services. These materials will be designed to be integrated into existing professional development frameworks.

In addition, the project will create a dissemination platform to share insights and resources, supporting ongoing development in vision related rehabilitation for people with ABI related vision loss.
