With the help of examples, distinguish between disability, impairment and handicap’

The most commonly cited definitions are those provided by the World Health Organization  in The International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities, and Handicaps:

Impairment

any loss or abnormality of psychological, physiological or anatomical structure or function.

Disability

any restriction or lack of ability to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered normal for a human being.

Handicap

a disadvantage for a given individual that limits or prevents the fulfillment of a role that is normal

As traditionally used, impairment refers to a problem with a structure or organ of the body; disability is a functional limitation with regard to a particular activity; and handicap refers to a disadvantage in filling a role in life relative to a peer group.
