Primarily aimed at 6 months to 6 years old although useful up to age 16..\nhttps://aurora.libnet.info/event/9928718 X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:

According to the American Public Health As sociation\, about 10% of preschoolers have eye or vision problems.

\n

The screener is meant for early detection of the following eye disorders but not as a tool for diagnosis: ·\; Hyperopia (farsightedness) &mid dot\; Myopia (nearsightedness) ·\; Astigmatism (blurred vision) &mid dot\; Anisometropia (unequal refractive power) ·\; Anisocoria (unequ al pupil size) ·\; Strabismus (eye misalignment) ·\; Media opa cities (e.g. cataracts or corneal scars) ·\; Amblyopia (lazy eye).\n

This pre-screening is not a substitute for the required vision scre ening for Illinois state public schools. Parents are simply given a PASS o r REFER reading after their child&rsquo\;s screening. PASS means that the child&rsquo\;s vision is within the normal range. REFER means that they sh ould be seen by an eye doctor. Parental permission is required.

\n

Th ere is no physical contact with the child and no eye-drops needed. · \; Results are produced in seconds. ·\; Children are screened from a pproximately three feet away.
