NO! School vision screenings are only designed to alert the possibility of a visual problem. Screenings are a limited process that cannot be used to diagnose a visual disorder, but rather indicate a potential need for further evaluation. Vision screenings do not test for color deficiency, clear and sustainable near vision, eye teaming, focusing, tracking or even the health of the eye.
Studies show that 1 in 4 children who pass vision screenings actually have an undiagnosed vision problem. This may lead to poor recognition, comprehension, memory retention and ultimately learning potential.
Dr. Feucht and Dr. Saini strive to build a personalized relationship with each patient through excellent quality of care, patient education, and individualized service. They have developed a special interest in pediatric eye care and binocular vision disorders in children. In addition to comprehensive eye exams for all ages, Eyes on Worcester offers a wide variety of eyeglass frames, contacts lenses and medical services for the entire family.
