title: [The value of optical aids' training for low vision child education: case report].
abstract: Training of the proper handling of optical devices was performed: location, targeting and tracking with the 8 x magnification telescope. After this step, learning to a copy from a blackboard with the adapted optical aid was initiated. Seventeen sessions were required for the child's final prescription due to severe low vision and loss of visual functions.
