The Tokyo Metropolitan Home Vision Screening Program for amblyopia in 3-year-old children.

Abstract:

:In August 1989, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government officially began a vision screening program for children aged 3 years 1 month. A 1988 pilot study of 1,303 children this age disclosed five cases (0.38%) of amblyopia. The home vision test, which uses picture cards of familiar figures, proved to be an efficient and inexpensive method of screening when incorporated into the existing health-check program for 3-year-old children. In the initial eight months of the program, 21,906 children were screened. Of these, 419 children (1.9%) were referred to an ophthalmologist for follow-up, and amblyopia was detected in 41 children (0.19%).
