Abstract. This paper describes an integrated system to support medical consultations, in particular low vision consultation. In emerging domains where the population is reduced (such as low vision), traditional studies are difficult to conduct and not statistically representative. This work contributes with the creation of an information system, which supports the entire consultation, and is based on three components: a transactional system, a rehabilitation system and a knowledge acquisition system. In particular, the knowledge acquisition system helps the discovery of relations between changes at the organ level and changes at the individual abilities level, and is based on knowledge discovery from databases techniques.
