Resumen
Since our inception, at the Center for Studies on Visual Disability and Human Development of the Universidad Santo Tomás Seccional Bucaramanga, we have insisted on the importance of working and addressing visual health as a component of human development and, therefore, as a priority aspect public health. This book collects the lessons learned from more than ten years, during which time we have traveled a path in search of making visible the irreversible low vision in the country.
In this process we have joined efforts with institutions and people who have diverse knowledge and ways of working; This has been fundamental, since it has allowed us to advance and build training proposals to provide tools for work in visual impairment to those in training. Collaborative work, in company, and from the diversity of knowledge, has been fundamental for the construction of this book, which we consider can contribute to reflection on aspects such as the conceptualization of low vision, health services, visual rehabilitation, social inequities, communication and social inclusion, among others.
