As far as eye conditions go, CMV stands for cytomegalic inclusion virus.
You can find more information at this website:
www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/cytomegalic/cytomegalic.htm
Also, the HM for the visual acuity in the left eye is probably hand
motion.
Make sure that you screen your student with CMV for hearing loss because
it has been my experience that many of our CMV children had that type of
lost and needed services as a student with deaf/blindness.

Ok, the brilliant people on this list might be my salvation for the day.
Here are my two questions: to improve really bad overhead fluorescent
lighting in classroom, what kind of replacement fluorescent bulbs would
you
recommend? The school is willing to change them out if I can give them
the
correct information. And the abbreviation of "CMA"? It is listed as a
diagnosis in a report (and I would call the OD but mother won't give
permission to contact him. Sigh.)
Thanks. I will sit by the computer and wait for my answers. You are
the
best!

Hello,
I have a student diagnosed with chorioretinitis. The eye report
reads as CMV chorioretinitis. Would anyone know what the initials
CMV stand for as well as HM as an accuity reading for the left eye?
Eye reports are usually an enigma for vision teachers.
Thank you.

I have a three year old student who has CVI as a result of incredible
amounts of seizures, which are still ongoing. She is completely
non-ambulatory, nonverbal, and almost non-responsive except for a
startle response. I took some of Lillie Nielson's ideas combined with
some of Christine Roman's ideas and built a Little Room with all yellow
objects. Her response has been incredible. When she is playing, her
eyes simply go crazy to put it one way. They cross intensely, then go
out, cross again, then go out. I know she sees the objects because she
actually reaches for them and will not react to other colored objects.
But there is no hint of intentional eye movement that I can detect.
When we take her out of the Room, she simply quiets and goes back to
passive. Her eyes will cross, but not very often. Anyone have any idea
if there is a purpose--albeit unconscious--to the eye crossing?

Hello to all once again,
Thank you so much for all your input concerning the spelling of
BRAILLIANT
You all had your reasons for what you thought would be politically right
and most of you thought that it was more beautiful and appropriate as
BRAILLIANT.
After I wrote to you I did more homework in a braille dictionary....
here is why have decided to go with BRAILLIANT.
braille
brailled drop the e add
ed
brailler drop the e add
er
brailling drop the e add
ing
braillist drop the e add
ist
and braille-iant drop the e add
iant
And now you have it........... if you are Brilliant you could be
both Brilliant & Brailliant
I am trying to get this shirt done in the next couple of
weeks............
I still would love to hear your thoughts on what you think as well as
what I think,
Do I hear any orders?????????????? : ) : )
