description Introduction: as a result of the high incidence of low vision, as well as its negative consequences in the biological, psychological and social spheres, the authors take into account the insufficiency of interdisciplinary studies that collect the psychosocial effects of intraocular surgery for the improvement of the patients. Case presentation: 20-year-old black male patient with a personal pathologic history of bilateral congenital cataract, horizontal nystagmus and low vision; family ophthalmologic-pathologic history of congenital cataract through the maternal line. He was referred from his health area to a low vision consultation for progressive deterioration of bilateral vision. Previously, during his childhood, the patient had been treated in low vision consultation at Ramon Pando Ferrer Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology, where he was rehabilitated, inserted in the Diagnostic and Orientation Center where he finished his primary studies, later the patient went on to regular education to complete basic secondary education. Conclusions:  it can be a motivational facilitator that makes possible to direct the actions that lead to an in-depth study regarding the particularities of each of the cases.
