Intraocular involvement in Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is rare. We describe the case of a neonate with congenital disseminated LCH involving skin, liver, spleen, and intraocular structures including uvea and retina. Early and aggressive treatment according to the LCH-II treatment protocol was administered and resulted in remission of the disease. However, despite close follow-up and additional local treatment, involvement of intraocular structures resulted in severe long-term ophthalmological sequelae including complete bilateral loss of vision.
The current study explores the inferential abilities of visually impaired children in a task presented in two formats, manipulative and verbal. The results showed that in the group of visually impaired children, just as with children with normal sight, there was a wide range of inference types. It was found that the visually impaired children perform slightly better in the use of inductive and relational inferences in the verbal format, while in the manipulative format children with normal sight perform better. These results suggest that in inferential functioning of young children, and especially visually impaired children, the format of the task influences performance more than the child's visual ability.
