British Journal of Visual Impairment (BJVI)
Journal Descriptions
The British Journal of Visual Impairment (BJVI) is a triannual, peer‑reviewed academic journal that has served as a leading international platform for research and professional dialogue since its inception in 1983. Published by SAGE Publications, BJVI brings together scholarship from diverse disciplines concerned with visual impairment and its impact on individuals and society. As an interdisciplinary journal, it encourages submissions that explore the social, educational, clinical, technological, and policy‑related dimensions of vision loss. Topics range from studies of accessibility and assistive technologies to investigations of learning outcomes, employment barriers, health disparities, and participation in community life. The journal’s audience includes researchers, clinicians, educators, rehabilitation specialists, social scientists, and advocates working in vision impairment and disability studies. BJVI prioritizes work that is empirically sound and socially relevant, seeking contributions that both advance theoretical understanding and inform practice. Reflecting its commitment to inclusivity, it publishes articles that consider not only measurable outcomes but also lived experiences and societal contexts. In doing so, BJVI supports evidence‑based approaches and critical discussions that influence policy and shape services for people with visual impairment. The journal also fosters global perspectives by welcoming research from different cultural and geographical settings, reinforcing its role as a key resource in the field.
