Vision also may fluctuate or may be influenced by factors such as inappropriate lighting, light glare, or fatigue. The extent of a student's visual impairment depends on the eye condition.

Both students who are blind and have low vision may require specialized equipment and materials. Students with low vision tend to read print, may use optical devices, or may also read Braille like their peers who are blind. Students who are blind may use Braille to read. Students with visual impairments include those with low vision and those who are blind.
