- Background. Participation in physical culture is particularly important for the rehabilitation process of persons with impairment as it has beneficial effects on physical and mental health. The objective of the study was to investigate the level of physical activity of adults with visual impairment. Material and methods. A group of 70 persons (35 women and 35 men) aged 51–64 years with moderate visual impairment and holders of a certificate of visual impairment participated in the study. A method of diagnostic poll was used for the purposes of the investigation. The research tool was the survey based on the HHS (Health and human Services) Physical Activity Guidelines for Adults. Results. Physical activities taken up by women were mostly housework and brisk walks, whereas men preferred walks. The majority of subjects, both men and women, self-reported that they undertake physical activity in the form of recreation movement [exercises] twice a week for two hours and that this physical exercise is at a low or medium level. The majority of female respondents takes part in physical activity of particularly high intensity twice a week and the majority of men just once a week. Conclusions. Considering the research conducted by other authors on physical activity of persons with visual impairment and its relationship to health, it may be concluded that subjects with visual dysfunction are sufficiently physically active in order to maintain good health.
