It is best to detect any eye disorder early as this make most treatments easy as less costly. For this reason, children are taken through vision screening starting from early age. Conducting this form of screening without having to visit an optician could have been impossible if not for a vision screener which has made it a cheap and easy venture on a large scale in community settings such as health fairs, fun days, preschools and grade schools, churches, medical centers and even the pediatrician clinics or at homes.
The devices enjoys support from published testimonials and findings in medical journals majority of which are validated and have been commissioned by renown medical professionals. The public on the other hands have added their support in praising the level of efficiency and importance of these devices. There are used by school nurses, pediatricians, opticians and Lions club because they are very easy to use. In fact, one does not need any medical background to use one and interpret the results.
Among several other features, the vision screening device gives results with proven accuracy and screens both eye balls simultaneously. In addition to this, the screening is done at a distance of one meter away (3.3 feet) from the camera. It lasts for only 0.8 second and displays results automatically on the screen. This makes it very easy to use and interpret the results that can also be stored in a data base for later reference through the various documentation options available.
For this reason, both the use and result interpretation is very easy and you can also take advantage of the documentation options that are available. The operational procedure for the device is very easy and takes less than one second for the display of results. It is for this reason that even non-medical staff finds it easy to conduct vision screening.
Once the patient or a person to be screened is at the right distance from the camera; the operator then pulls the trigger which is followed by a unique sound used to help the patient focus at the device. The images of both eyes are then captured on a white screen after which the measurements of various parts are done automatically.
In order to diagnose myopia, the nearsightedness is checked and farsightedness checked for hyperopia. The other checks that are done include comparison of pupil sizes for both eyes for anisocoria and determination of symmetric eye alignment for corneal reflexes. All these happen automatically in seconds hence the immediate results displayed on the screen.
The comparison of refraction of the two eyes is done for anisometropia while astigmatism is diagnosed by determining the cornea irregularity. For myopia and hyperopia, the nearsightedness and farsightedness are determined respectively. Other conditions that can be detected include anisocoria through the comparison of the two pupil sizes corneal reflexes which requires that symmetric eye alignment is determined. All these are done automatically after which the result is displayed.
The results can be saved and printed in different formats thanks to an internal database. The database makes it possible to review the previous records in an organized or chronological order. In addition to this, the device is also cheaply available hence saves a lot of money and time that could be wasted in having to visit an optician.
