CVI Toddler Vision Eye Train helps develop focusing, scanning, identifying, deciphering, hand-eye coordination, grapho-motor skills, and spatial concepts.
The tool is primarily aimed at the critical age of development for the visual system, which is 0-3 years old.
CVI Toddler Vision Eye Train is operated by a therapist who has received training, typically in a dedicated darkened room.
The app emphasizes exploration and joy, with the primary stimulus for development being enjoyment derived from play. Success is secondary to participation and fun.
While toddlers are entitled to independent play, the app is designed to be operated by a trained therapist who mediates the external environment and provides support.
It is recommended to work with the toddler sitting on a suitable chair in front of a computer with a matte touch screen. If a touch screen is unavailable, the adult can use a mouse to click simultaneously.
There are over 300 accessible illustrations with thick contours and strong colors. The number of illustrations used can be limited by clicking on the 'illustrations' tab.
