Disability and functional limitation of the adolescent:
The adolescent is blind. He is not able to perceive optical information. The optical information must therefore be converted in such a way that the young person can perceive it tactilely with his fingers or acoustically. The GdB (degree of disability) is 100. The severely disabled person's identity card includes the marks B, Bl, H and RF.
