Experiences of life and intersectionality of people with low vision: A qualitative approach

The results of the study show that people experience discrimination, exclusion, and stigmatization in their daily activities, which vary according to the traditionally assigned roles of gender, social class, age, and educational level, among others. Given the complexity of the experience, it is important for health and visual rehabilitation professionals to broaden their perspective and transition toward vision rehabilitation models that address the various dimensions affected by this condition.

Abstract

The results of the study show that people experience discrimination, exclusion, and stigmatization in their daily activities, which vary according to the traditionally assigned roles of gender, social class, age, and educational level, among others. Given the complexity of the experience, it is important for health and visual rehabilitation professionals to broaden their perspective and transition toward vision rehabilitation models that address the various dimensions affected by this condition.
