Bytový interiér pro nevidomé
Martineková, Daniela
This thesis is divided into two parts. The first, theoretical part deals mainly with the research on the levels of visual impairment and orientation of the blind in space. In the next chapters of the theoretical part, we learn about the different compensatory aids they can use in their everyday life and the requirements for the interior and its furnishing elements. In the second, practical part, the thesis focuses on my suggestions for limiting the selected collision points. These suggestions are then assessed by a blind person, Mr. Josef Konečný. This is followed by an evaluation of the functionality and feasibility of the selected proposals with a final discussion and contribution to practice.
Acceptance of visual impairment in the productive age
Havlíčková, Adéla ; Květoňová, Lea (advisor) ; Šumníková, Pavlína (referee)
The bachelor thesis consists of a theoretical and a research part. It deals with the acceptance of visual impairment in the working age, specifically looking at acquired visual impairment. The theoretical part defines congenital and acquired visual impairment, then includes the most common causes of visual impairment, its consequences and the associated psychological changes, then describes the possibilities of successful acceptance in the form of a foreign study, and finally deals with the possibilities of social rehabilitation and its forms. The aim of the research is to describe how people reflect on their process of acceptance of sight loss and what areas have influenced this acceptance and what the differences are between male and female experiences in relation to their personality traits. Using qualitative research in the form of semi-structured interviews with three respondents, it became clear that the most significant change for respondents was a change in mindset and motivation to cope with the crisis situation. Furthermore, monitoring one's own progress towards self-sufficiency and the support of those around them proved to have a great influence on the acceptance process. Professional support and help also played a significant role. Furthermore, it was possible to observe differences in...
Nursing care for a child patient with visual ampairment - strabismus
ŽLIČAŘOVÁ, Tereza
This bachelor thesis deals with the nursing care of a pediatric patient with the visual impairment/ strabismus. The name of this visual defect is derived from the Greek word strabidzein - squint. The Czech name for this visual impairment is squint. If this defect is not detected and diagnosed early in a child's life, it can cause health complications later in his life. If treated late, it can cause health complications also in adulthood. The first aim of the bachelor thesis was to map the specifics of nursing care in a pediatric patient with this diagnosed defect, especially in hospitalized children. The second aim was to map the role of the nurse in the education of the pediatric patient with diagnosed visual impairment/ strabismus, especially in the preoperative and postoperative care of hospitalized children. The third aim was to map the impact of the disease on the psychological needs of pediatric patients with strabismus, both in hospitalised children and in families with children with strabismus. The final aim was to map the impact of the disease on the social needs of the pediatric patient with strabismus, also in the case of hospitalised children, as well as the impact on the social needs of the child's family. The research part of the study was created based on a qualitative investigation, using the method of interviewing families with children with strabismus and their parents and nurses working at the Eye Clinic of the Children's Hospital FN Brno. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interview technique. Data collection in families was conducted in person or online and in-depth interviews with nurses were conducted in person on the ward at the hospital. The results were processed using the pencil and paper method into categories and subcategories. The survey found that currently the approach in pre - and post-operative care is very individual and adapted to the needs of pediatric patients. Hospitalization of a pediatric patient with a legal representative or an attendant becomes a matter of course according to the possibilities of the department. In the course of our investigation, it was found that the specifics of nursing care are mostly related to the fact that the child cannot see, has one or both eyes covered after surgery. And medical staff becoming the "eyes" of the child and all care is then based on that. Furthermore, the roles of the nurse in the education of the pediatric patient were mapped, where it was found how important it is to educate the child according to his age, but it is also essential to educate the parents. And thanks to this, the whole hospitalization is usually calmer, because parents have enough information and the mutual cooperation between hospital staff and parents works. Furthermore, it was confirmed that young children with strabismus do not have problems with integration into the collective, neither does strabismus cause them problems in sports activities. However, no child in the interviews is doing the sport at a professional level, the possibility of restrictions cannot be assessed here. It has also been found that often the strabismus itself and its diagnosis are psychologically more difficult for parents to bear than for the children themselves. In the end, it was found that the children found it most difficult to use the occlusor among the compensatory aids. Here, further adaptation of this compensatory aid to the child is needed so that it is as suitable as possible and the treatment can be effective. The results obtained from the research can be used to create an educational leaflet for children and their parents motivating them to wear the occlusor and other compensatory aids for strabismus. The reason for this is that families were found to frequently refuse to wear an occlusor or glasses as a compensatory aid, or to take them off.
Adjusting the accessibility of the environment for pupil with visual impairment in primary school
KABEŠOVÁ, Eliška
The bachelor's thesis on improving accessibility of the environment for a student with visual impairment at mainstream primary schools explores the possibilities of making mainstream primary schools more accessible for students with visual impairments. The aim of the thesis is to create an adequate theoretical basis related to the chosen topic and, based on that, provide a qualitative description of the school environment's accessibility for the education of a student with visual impairment. A partial objective of the thesis is to evaluate the accessibility measures in a specific school environment for the education of a student with visual impairment and provide general recommendations for adapting the school environment to the needs of students with visual impairments. The theoretical part defines the concept of visual impairment, education of students with visual impairments, independent mobility, spatial orientation, and environmental modifications. The practical part includes a qualitative description of the accessibility of the environment for a female student with visual impairment enrolled in a mainstream primary school. It highlights the assistive devices primarily used by students with visual impairments to enhance their independent work and emphasizes the crucial importance of these devices in providing equal opportunities and supporting inclusive education. The general recommendations provided at the end of the bachelor's thesis inform about available tools and strategies that can contribute to better understanding and support of inclusive education.
