Abstract

This work exposes the existence of editorial materials created specifically for the visually impaired, with a focus on the description of the steps involved in producing and materialization of these graphic designs. Discusses the problems of visually impaired in relation to social and educational inclusion throughout history and the invention of the main writing method for the blind, Braille. Describes the existing modes of human perception and their actions in the formation of visual and psychological concepts. Questions the lack of specific bibliography and easy access and lack of incentive to produce materials targeted to the visually impaired. Through field research carried out by means of open interviews, the study demonstrated the opinion of the visually impaired on the current scenario of editorial design and its participation as a tool for open access to personal independence, education and leisure.
