SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN REQUIRE VISION TREATMENT (APPROX.)1
WHY PHOTSCREENING MATTERS
Nearly half of young children have never had their vision tested.
When it comes to learning, engaging with the world, and hitting developmental milestones, perhaps nothing is more important to a child than their vision – and yet, nearly half of children under 5 have never had their vision tested.1
Photoscreening is a clinically effective method for capturing images of a child’s eyes and analyzing them for amblyopia risk factors (lazy eye) – which can lead to long-term vision loss. That’s why the AAP recommends photoscreening at annual well-child visits as early as 1 year old, to screen young or pre-verbal patients.
