Color Perception
Importance: Differentiating colors and shades. Therapeutic Activities: Color sorting games, hue matching tasks, color-based puzzles.
Depth Perception
Importance: Judging distance and spatial relationships. Therapeutic Activities: Arranging objects at different distances, 3D puzzles, ball games.
Contrast Sensitivity
Importance: Distinguishing objects from a similar background. Therapeutic Activities: Activities with varying contrasts, shades identification.
Eye-Hand Coordination
Importance: Using visual input to guide hand movements. Therapeutic Activities: Catching a ball, handwriting practice, bead threading.
Accommodation
Importance: Eye's ability to change focus between objects at different distances. Therapeutic Activities: Near and far focusing exercises, changing focus points quickly.
Visual Discrimination

Visual-Spatial Relations
Importance: Understanding object orientation. Therapeutic Activities: Block building, orienteering, paper folding.
Visual Form Constancy
Importance: Recognizing objects in various environments. Therapeutic Activities: Object identification in different contexts, shape sorting toys.
Visual Attention
Importance: Focusing on visual information. Therapeutic Activities: Concentration games, timed tasks, visual tracking exercises.
Visual Closure
Importance: Identifying objects when partially hidden. Therapeutic Activities: Completing incomplete pictures, jigsaw puzzles, dot-to-dot drawings.
Bilateral Integration
Importance: Coordinating both sides of the body. Therapeutic Activities: Symmetrical tasks, using both hands in activities, ball exercises involving both hands.
Visual Persistence
Importance: Ability to retain a visual image for a moment. Therapeutic Activities: Flash visualization, rapid exposure activities, and quick recall tasks.
Visual Memory
Importance: Remembering visual traits of objects. Therapeutic Activities: Memory games, recall tasks, sequencing activities.
Visual Imagery
Importance: Creating mental images of objects or scenarios. Therapeutic Activities: Visualization exercises, drawing from memory, storytelling with visual elements.
Visual Processing Speed
Importance: Quick interpretation of visual stimuli. Therapeutic Activities: Timed sorting, rapid scanning activities, speed matching games.
Visual Auditory Integration
Importance: Coordinating visual and auditory information. Therapeutic Activities: Activities that combine sight and sound signals, reaction to visual and auditory prompts.
Peripheral Vision
Importance: Detecting stimuli outside the direct line of vision. Therapeutic Activities: Side vision awareness exercises, field-of-vision tests.
Visual Figure-Ground
Importance: Distinguishing objects from their background. Therapeutic Activities: Where's Waldo, hidden pictures, sorting activities.
Directionality
Importance: Understanding right, left, up, and down in space. Therapeutic Activities: Direction-following games, compass reading, map navigation tasks.
Oculomotor Control
Importance: Smooth and accurate eye movements. Therapeutic Activities: Tracking exercises, saccadic movements, reading across a page.
Simultaneous Focus
Importance: Observing multiple elements at once. Therapeutic Activities: Multi-part task games, exercises with divided attention, juggling.
