AB  - Evidence Connection articles provide clinical application of systematic reviews 
      developed in conjunction with the American Occupational Therapy Association's 
      (AOTA's) Evidence-Based Practice Project. Findings from the systematic review of 
      occupational therapy for older adults with low vision were published in the 
      January/February 2020 issue of the American Journal of Occupational Therapy 
      (AJOT) and in AOTA's Occupational Therapy Practice Guidelines for Older Adults 
      With Low Vision, published in the March/April 2020 issue of AJOT. In this 
      article, we describe a case report of an older adult with low vision who was 
      referred to outpatient occupational therapy services because of a recent 
      progression of her age-related macular degeneration that led to a decline in 
      functional independence. Each article in the Evidence Connection series 
      summarizes the evidence from the published reviews on a given topic and presents 
      an application of the evidence to a related clinical case. These articles 
      illustrate how the research evidence from the reviews can be used to inform and 
      guide clinical decision making.
