“…Studies show that training and rehabilitation protocols decrease imbalance and can be used as a strong interventive treatment for children with visual disorder and balance dysfunction. The review of the literature showed that all training, rehabilitation, and exercise programs positively affected the balance improvement in the blind [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44]. Mobility is one key element in these protocols because a sedentary lifestyle explains a certain aspect of imbalance in the blind population.…”

Purpose: This paper reviews the studies on balance in the blind. Methods: The paper comprehensively reviewed studies on balance in the blind from the following databases: PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Clinical Trials, Google Scholar, and Scopus, from 2001 to 2019. Also, other available papers were examined. Results: Out of 35 evaluated studies, 32 articles were fully represented and the rest were only summarized. These articles covered two issues: 1) balance adaptation in the blind, 2) the effects of training protocols on the balance in the blind. Conclusion: The blind suffer from poor balance. However, they tend not to differ from normal people, when sufficient data from the vestibular and proprioception systems are available. Also, balance in the blind improves by age, which increases the efficiency and maturity of vestibular and proprioception systems. The blind tend to be more reliant on the hip than ankle strategy. All the training protocols reviewed in this paper have positively affected balance in the blind. Nevertheless, it was impossible to determine the most efficient protocol, and further qualitative studies are required for this purpose.

“…Balance is an essential component of any motor system; it is one of the most important factors in the sensory-motor system modulating the complex relationship between sensory inputs and required motor responses. Balance is one of the key and integral components in daily activities (Rajabi, Goodarzi, and Mazidi 2017). It is an essential factor for the blind that helps to create spatial integration in them (Çolak et al 2004).…”

Background: Maintaining balance is an important factor in blind people. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects and permanency of core stability training on static and dynamic balance in the blind.Methods: In Sepideh Norouzi School for the blind in Kermanshah, among the available students, 30 blind male and female students were selected and randomly divided into two groups: control (mean age: 9.81±1.31 years) and experimental (mean age: 9.78±1.11 years) groups. Firstly, static and dynamic balance were measured using Bess & Y balance tests respectively. Then, the experimental group performed core stability training for 8 weeks and 3 sessions per week (15 to 20 minutes per session). Static and dynamic balance tests were performed again after the end of the training and also two months later.Results: Findings using repeated measures analysis of variance showed that core stability training, immediately after training had significant positive effects on static (p= 0.005) and dynamic (p= 0.001) balance. Also, two months after the end of the training, the positive effects of the training on static (p= 0.009) and dynamic (p= 0.012) balance were significant. Conclusions:Based on this, it can be said that core stability training can be used to strengthen static and dynamic balance, with long-term effects in blind people. Therefore, it is recommended that trainers pay attention to these training to improve balance in the blind.
