Vision Screening of Young Children

Several of our lion members have been trained through the Lions Eye Health Program, to conduct vision screenings for children. This is an initiative that involves visiting schools or community groups, and screening for: spot vision 9myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, anisometropia, binocular vision and anisocoria), visual acuity, colour vision, and stereo depth perception. These screenings are conducted free of charge, and if any issues detected, the children are referred to an optometrist for further examination.
