Résumé :	According to the World Health Organization (WHO, 2014), there are an estimated 246 million individuals throughout the world living with low vision. This rate is expected to grow over the next few decades, primarily due to our aging global population (WHO, 2014). Because occupational therapists must be prepared to address the occupational participation needs of those with low vision, this special issue of the British Journal of Occupational Therapy is timely. I am pleased to be able to create an issue of diverse topics addressing visual impairment from a broad international perspective including Canada, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States (USA). We hope you will enjoy reading this special issue reflecting the scope of occupational therapy in low vision rehabilitation.
