  40. limits to a person's ability to learn at an expected
  41. level and function in daily life levels of intellectual disability
  42. very greatly in Children.
  43. Children with intellectual disability might have a hard time letting
  44. others know their wants and needs and taking care of

  46. develop more slowly than other Children of the same age.
  47. It could take longer for a child with intellectual disability
  48. to learn to speak, walk, dress or eat without help,
  49. and they could have trouble learning in school.

  51. In simple terms, a learning disability results from a difference
  52. in the way a person's brain is wired.
  53. Children with learning disabilities are as smart or smarter than

  55. But they may have difficulty reading, writing, spelling, reasoning, recalling
  56. and or organizing information if left to figure things out
  57. by themselves or if taught in conventional ways.
  58. Vision impairment.
  59. Visual impairment is a term experts used to describe any
  60. kind of vision loss, whether it's someone who cannot see
  61. at all or someone who has partial vision loss.
  62. Many people have some type of visual problem at some
  63. point in their lives, some can no longer see objects
  64. far away.
  65. Others have problems reading small print.
  66. These type of conditions are often easily treated with eyeglasses
  67. or contact lenses.
  68. But when one or more parts of the I R
  69. brain that are needed to process images become diseased or
  70. damaged, severe or total loss of vision can occur.
  71. In these cases, vision cannot be fully restored with medical
  72. treatment, surgery or corrective lenses like glasses or contacts.
