Currently, in the field of cognitive activity continues active development in the field of cognitive science. Extensive opportunities in the use of interactive training programs, a positive impact on the cognitive functions of students, increasing the concentration of active attention on educational material, increasing motivation for learning are important advantages of electronic devices. Of particular importance are modern electronic devices for visually impaired students, allowing them to receive an education that is fully consistent with the education of students who do not have restrictions on health opportunities. The review describes the existing types of displays, lists their main characteristics that can affect the state of visual functions and visual performance. The current sanitary and hygienic requirements for the visual work of students with normal visual functions, and with severe ophthalmopathology, containing the basic provisions, but not taking into account, however, the diversity of currently used and emerging new electronic devices. In this regard, it emphasizes the prospects of research in the field of the impact of modern technology on the visual system and the development of appropriate recommendations for their use in the organization of the educational process.</p>visual ergonomicslow visione-booksinclusive educationэргономика зренияслабовидениеэлектронные учебникиинклюзивное образование[Тарутта Е.П., Проскурина О.В., Тарасова Н.А., Маркосян Г.А.
