Abstract

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are a group of pervasive developmental
disorders affecting the child, the commonest of which is Autism, which is
characterized by severely compromised ability to engage in, and by a lack
of interest in, social interactions. All children with autism demonstrate
deficits in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication, and
repetitive behaviors or interests. In addition, they often have unusual
responses to sensory experiences such as certain sounds. ASD has roots in
both structural brain abnormalities and genetic predispositions, according
to family studies and studies of brain anatomy.
Cognitive deficits in social perception likely result from abnormalities in
neural circuitry. Children with ASD have been studied with several
imaging techniques, but no strongly consistent findings have emerged,
although abnormalities in the cerebellum and limbic system and larger
brains have been reported.
Key Words:
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Abnormalities in Eyes of ASD
Patients, Therapeutic Modalities of Visual Abnormalities in ASD.
