> Do blind people and nearsighted people have the same treatment? Yes, they both need to see optometrists on a regular basis. They get the same therapy even though a blind person won't get glasses. It's the same for autism. Someone with profound autism will still see occupational, behavior, and speech therapists. The therapy will be different from what someone with mild autism gets, but the specialists involved will largely be the same. The OT for someone with profound autism can be identical to mild autism because there are many different aspects. Profound autism simply means several aspects have severe problems. That's my point. Very similar to how with an oncologist you might have a specialist for your cancer but ultimately you deal with a team that often treat different cancers. For example, people to draw your blood and run labs. That's why hospitals have an oncology department and not a lung cancer department.
