Abstract:
Vision disability implies that an individual's vision can't be revised to a "normal" level. Vision disability might be brought about by a deficiency of visual sharpness, where the eye doesn't see objects as obviously to no one's surprise. The present study was conducted to study the Challenges Faced by Visually Impaired Adolescents in Rajasthan. Convenient random sampling method was used for collection of data. The sample of 150 blind adolescents (age group of 12-14 and 15-17 yrs.) selected from five blind schools of five districts of Rajasthan state. From each blind school 30 blind adolescents were selected. A self-made questionnaire was used to measure the challenges of blinds in different areas. The findings showed that there is no significant difference between challenges faced by blind children and both age groups have similar type of challenges.
