States have eye clinics in the PUBIC
school system. These are New YORK
MINNEAPOLIS, Milwaukee and Roches:
ter. The New York clinic corrected
eye defects of s,789 children in one
year by refraction and glasses. ;.
In number of. states. it IS
possible to proceed against parents
or guardians who fail to comply
with orders regarding children with
defective vision. Only three states
Colorado, New Jersey, and New YORK
have specific provisions however
compelling parents or guardians &c
have examinations and treatment
made
5. The remedial steps most gener'
ally approved and adopted in ali CIT
les which have specific rules regard,
ing defective vision, are as follows:
a. Instructions from Board Of
Public Health given to norma
school students and teachers.
b. Preliminary examinations By
teachers of all pupils in room.
c.Accurate examination by quail
fled eve expert.
d. Notice to parents that child has
defective vision.
e. Follow up by nurses to see that
notice is complied with.
f. Continuous eve tests and com
plete record maintained for eacf
pupil tests to be made seml-yearly
if possible. ;,
cases by medical examiners.
h. Financial aid through specific
funds or local charities for parents
or guardians too poor to have child's
eyes given proper attention.
From the above, it is apparent that
much remains to be ACCOMPLISHED
if the menace of defective vision is
to be combatted successfully in the
United States. The logical proceed
ure to be advocated would be:
/. Adoption of satisfactory systems
in school districts to comply with
existing laws governing defective Wis
ion. ~ :.
9 Enactment of laws compelling
parents or guardians to comply with
notices to provide refractory aid
for children with poor eye sight.
8. Extension of eye clinics and
conservation of vision classes to all
cities and into the rural schools.
4. Qualification and unification of
all state laws regarding defective
vision.
5. Enactment Of sane measures,
compelling eye tests in public schools
in the remaining 20 states.

voted more attention to the improve
