Optometric examinations are an unportant part of routine preventive health care. Many eye and Visioncondi-. tions present no obvious symptums. Therefore, children are - otten unaware that a problem exists. Early diagnosisand: treatment are important for matntaining•good vision and •. when possible pteventtng.permanent vision loss:. . Despite the economic, social and health care - advances which have occurred in our society, many preschool and K. houlrage children are not receiving adequate proles • - sional eye care. It is estimated that onlyabout one third of • all' children have had an eye exam prior to entering school • and that nearly 296 of school-age children havevision prob., lems. , The need for comprehensive optometric tare should not be confused with the need for vision screening programs sometimes administered to, public and private schools. Each has a different purpose and generates different results. Vision - .screening shY.ild be used to assist in the. identification of • those who have ormay potehtially have a vision problem , interfering with school performance. • The fact that it. is a limited, non-diagnostic process is often notcummunicated effectively tolthe public. This creates the illusion; that "pass- ing" the screening means that there is no vision problem. Frequency -of examinations depends on age. Newborns are typically screened at birth for congenital eye• disorders and disease. Risk free children should be examined at age 3, before entering first grade, then every two years thereafter. Children at risk usually need to be seen more tee • - quently. This includes infants born prematurely, these with low birthweight, hearing impairments, the mentally handl- , capped or with cerebral palsy. Children with a family history of eye disease, crosses eyes, and high prescription glasses are also at risk.
