AB  - Although the issue of life satisfaction is being discussed in various theoretical disciplines, it has not been defined clearly yet. There are many terms that are close to term life satisfaction, such as happiness, well-being, quality of life etc., these are sometimes used interchangeably. This paper introduces an initial research of life satisfaction of individuals with visual impairment in the Czech Republic. The authors used a standardised Questionnaire of Life Satisfaction by Fahrenberg, Myrtek, Schumacher and Brahler (in Rodná, Rodný, 2001) to find out whether the life satisfaction of individuals with visual impairment differs from statistically given norm.
