PediaVision to Conduct Free Screenings With "Spot" at Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club
Date:3/21/2012

ve any type of vision screening.       

Today, of all school-age children across America, 25 percent suffer from a vision problem,[2] that is 12.5 million children who may be unable to see the blackboard or read their textbooks. Research shows that of the children in the 9-15 year old age group only 10 percent of those who needed glasses actually had them.

"The one thing that I would want parents to know about vision screening is how imperative it is to their child's learning," said Bandy Hogue, a grammar school principal who has witnessed the positive impact Spot had on her school. "Healthy students make strong learners."

About Spot

The breakthrough vision screener Spot was recently introduced into the market and can assess the vision of anyone from 6 months through adult with accuracy, while delivering immediate comprehensive objective results. 

Spot has an incredibly quick capture time of one second or less which makes screening equally efficient in a physician's office or large-scale public screening. The WiFi enabled handheld device makes vision screening as easy as using a camera. Spot's touchscreen interface clearly displays the results accurately and instantly. 

With Spot, a typical school can be screened in one day, dramatically lowering the cost of screening students and increasing the opportunity to make a difference for those children who end up receiving glasses.  Access to the screening data is immediate and Spot facilitates large-scale data analysis.   Spot enables administrators and educators to instantly print reports, monitor follow-up care and show supporters the statistics behind childhood vision issues.
