Vision Screening Program

 

Elementery student at a vision screening chartIt is estimated that one out of four school-age children has an undiagnosed vision problem severe enough to affect his or her performance in school and in life. However, 66 percent of children currently enter school without undergoing any kind of eye exam or vision screening. Junior Blind's Vision Screening Program provides vision screenings, referrals and follow-up support to help identify and prevent future vision problems for thousands of low-income pre-school and elementary-school children.
