Why is Photoscreening Recommended?

Vision screens conducted by pediatricians at annual well-child visits often include a red reflex examination with an ophthalmoscope and a visual acuity test.7

However, examinations with ophthalmoscopes may not determine if amblyopic risk factors are present.6

Results that appear normal using an ophthalmoscope may have amblyogenic risk factors, especially if the amblyopia is not strabismic.

Also, deprivational and refractive amblyopia are more difficult to find using an ophthalmoscope.

And while visual acuity is the preferred method for vision screening past the age of 5, studies have shown that there is a 0% positive predictive value for traditional visual acuity testing at 3-4 years of age.7 At this age, children are too young to fully understand a visual acuity test, limiting its effectiveness.

Considering that 15-20% of children have amblyopic risk factors and 3-4% have amblyopia, pediatricians are lacking a detection tool that effectively screens children too young for a visual acuity test.1
