Vision Screener
Plusoptix vision screeners can detect vision disorders and media opacities starting at 5 months of age and up
A Plusoptix vision screener empowers Pediatricians, Head Start offices, Lions Clubs, Kid Sight Programs, and School nurses to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children starting age 5 months and up. The earlier a vision disorder or media opacity is detected the better it can be treated, and Amblyopia, i.e. a lazy eye, can be prevented.
Plusoptix Vision Screeners use the measuring principle of a transillumination test. Unlike other transillumination tests (e.g. Red Reflex test), Plusoptix vision screeners avoid glare of the patient, by using infrared light. The pupils remain large even without dilation. Further, the Plusoptix transillumination test and pupil evaluation feature helps make concussion assessments even easier.
How accurate is a Plusoptix Vision Screener?
Plusoptix vision screeners are as accurate as a retinoscopy in un-dilated eyes. They have proven to deliver highly accurate results in numerous studies from all over the world.
Do Plusoptix Vision Screeners have high sensitivity and specificity?
Plusoptix vision screeners usually have the highest sensitivity and specificity in direct comparisons to other vision screeners like SPOT or GoCheckKids. Sensitivity and specificity are values that are important to understand how reliable a device detects vision disorders and how likely it is to have false-positive or false-negative results.
Your advantages
Plusoptix vision screeners help you achieve more in less time!
Instrument-based vision screening with Plusoptix vision screeners can help increase the number of children an organization can screen in a limited time, while having an eye on cost efficiency. Screening 80-100 children per hour is no longer a rarity.
Do other vision screeners offer HOTV critical line testing?
Plusoptix vision screeners are the only vision screeners that feature on-screen HOTV critical line testing, making overall results even more reliable and trustworthy. Children who pass instrument-based vision screening with a Plusoptix vision screener are to perform an HOTV critical line test on-screen to meet the requirements of typical state guidelines and best practice.
