Every parent dreams about their unborn child – about their physical characteristics, abilities they will learn, and personality traits they will acquire. Sometimes, not all of their expectations are fulfilled and the child's development may become unpredictable. For the development of a small child, eyesight is one of the main senses by which it receives most of the information coming from its surroundings, meaning it severely impacts the entire developmental path and affects all of the developmental areas. It is, for said reasons, important to notice the risks which indicate possible visual impariment and, in an appropriate manner, provide intervention. The process of early intervention includes prompt diagnostics in a timely matter and professional support aimed at tracking early childhood as the most critical period of a child's life. During said process, it's not only the child's early development which is closely followed, but support is also extended to all family members who have to confront an unpredictable situation. The collaboration established between parents and professionals will be described through this paper as it is crucial for positive outcomes of early intervention not only for children with visual impairment, but for early intervention services in general. Hence, professionals are there to establish a quality relationship with parents, provide adequate support, encourage parents to partake in the process of early intervention and thus create as many developmental and learning opportunities as possible. Their relationship should be based on open and honest communication and must be full of understanding, respect and trust. The paper emphasizes the importance and benefits of collaboration established between professionals and parents and its impact on the outcomes of early intervention in families of visually impaired children.
