Summary/Abstract: Today’s evolution in technology and in medical, psychological and special education sciences allowed for the appearance of new trends in the understanding of functional rehabilitaion of visually impaired people. The general principles of functional rehabilitation of the visually impaired are based on scientific data confirmed by neurophysiology, neuropsychology, cognitive psychology, developmental psychology and experimental psychology. Increasing the efficiency of the educational /vocational orientation process requires, first of all, putting into practice ways of optimising learning in the case of visually impaired persons. Vocational orientation and training is based on the subject’s background, personality, skils acquired in school and through extra-curricular activities. In the process of vocational orientation of visually impaired persons, both the team members and the young visually impaired should use not only their imagination, but also great care, and a rational pedagogical optimism.
