The strong increase in CVI in children is due to the large occurrence of posterior lesions in children having survived severe and deleterious neurological conditions around birth as well as to a better screening and diagnosis of these deficits. As in adults, the nature and severity of CVI in children are directly dependent upon the location and extent of the brain damage. We present here the semiology, aetiology and lesion location leading to CVI as well as the deleterious consequences of these deficits on learning, development and social interactions.
