Abstract

One of the visual characteristics of autistic children’s vision is their discomfort with looking at bright light or moving from the sun to the shade, which is a real problem, and in our study, an appropriate solution was found for them without any surgical intervention. The aim is to find a solution for this group of society by fogging the lenses of the glasses and doing some physical exercises for them. Twenty patients were randomly selected from the auditors to the Teaching Clinic for Visual Technologies - College of Health and Medical Technologies - Baghdad, who suffer from their discomfort from looking at bright white light for a period from 1-4 to 1-9-2021. The number of males was 14 patients, while the number of female patients was 6 at random.
