3 Understand and record the functional impact of

vision loss assessment

Functional impact of vision loss assessments help us to understand how a person’s vision loss affects their daily life. The assessor asks the person a series of questions. They then select statements to best describe the impact.

Completion of the assessment can be:

• by an allied health professional
• done internally. It is available on the NDIS intranet.

You will enter the results into PACE.
