This study was done to investigate the characteristics of eating habit and the level of school meal satisfaction for students with visual impairment, and thus to improve their nutrition and to provide the basic material to enhance the quality of school meal. To achieve the goal, 174 students with visual impairment residing in the dormitory of twelve schools throughout the nation took part in the survey. The result of the research is as follows. Firstly, for the characteristics of eating habit on the students with visual impairment residing in the dormitory, the rate of the students eating breakfast (average 5~6times a week) was the highest, but that of the students having breakfast(average 3∼4times a week) was the lowest. For the reasons that students don’t eat at the school cafeteria, ‘because they don’t like the diet’ was the highest, followed by ‘because they don’t have much appetite’ and ‘because they want to eat out’. For their favorite diet, ‘Korean dishes’ were highest, followed by ‘Western dishes’ and ‘Japanese dishes’. Secondly, the level of school meal satisfaction was by and large more than middle level, the highest level of the total school meal satisfaction was ‘the frequency of their favorite dish’, followed by ‘the appearance of food’ and ‘the number of the side dishes’ whereas the lowest was ‘the balance of diet’. The satisfaction level by each meal was very high, and specifically lunch showed the highest satisfaction level but dinner, the lowest. On the basis of the result of this research, the matters required in the subsequent researches were suggested in the limitations.
