Peer violence, or more popularly called bullying, is a burning problem widespread throughout the world. Olweus (1979) defines peer violence as the intentional, repeated, negative behavior of an individual or multiple persons directed toward a person who cannot adequately defend himself. A large number of studies state that children with visual impairments are more exposed to violence. Certain characteristics of the socio-emotional development of children with visual impairment, such as lack of facial expression, the presence of blindisms, learned helplessness and others, negatively affect the development of their social competence which puts them at greater risk of violence. The aim of this paper is to review the scientific literature to clarify the phenomenon of peer violence in the population of visually impaired, and to examine the incidence and differences in experienced and committed violence in visually impaired persons. Although there are many studies in the world on the incidence of peer violence in the typical population, research conducted on children with disabilities and children with visual impairment is much less represented. As for the differences regarding to the sex of the students, the age of the impairment and the degree of visual impairment, the research findings do not agree. Examination of gender differences in experiencing violence in this population did not show unambiguous results. As for differences regarding the degree of impairment, most research supports the thesis that visually impaired children are more exposed to violence. A higher degree of risk is also associated with younger age, earlier onset of impairment, and multiple disabilities. All research results agree that rates of committing violence in this population are lower than in the typical population and that visually impaired children are still more likely to be victims than perpetrators of violence. In terms of the degree of visual impairment, visually lowsighted students are more prone to committingviolence than blind students. A review of research on this topic points us to the need of rising awareness of this topic among professionals and parents of visually impaired children. Many forms of peer violence remain unrecognized by adults. In addition, peer violence leaves many severe consequences for the victim, but also for the perpetrator of the violence. One of the ways to prevent violence is strengthening social competence and tolerance, not only of the visually impaired students, but of the entire population of children, their parents and teachers.
