Screening for visual defects in preschoolchildren.

R M Ingram, W W Holland, C Walker, J M Wilson, P E Arnold, S Dally.

Abstract

There is no evidence to support the suggestion that a widespread programme of vision screening at age 3 1/2 should be instituted. Some of the practical problems and defects of such a programme are outlined. If the issues raised are to be resolved by further research, identification of preschoolchildren who have visual problems will be facilitated by a screening procedure involving refraction and possibly a cover test.
