Product Details:
Vision Screen 9000 is a computerized vision screening system.
It provides a simple, straightforward method of detecting possible vision
problems in six critical areas: Far Acuity, Near Acuity, Depth
Perception, Color Vision, Macular
Health, and Eye Movement. The program
provides video demonstrations of vision screening procedures to help users
understand proper techniques. There are also ASL videos to provide access
for users who are deaf. The program will maintain vision screening data
files on an unlimited number of subjects and retrieve them as needed, making
it an ideal tool for families, schools, businesses, and other entities who
feel visual skills are important.
Far Acuity
This tests your ability to recognize small objects at a distance. If this
test is hard, you may need new glasses. You may have trouble seeing to drive.
It may be hard to see the TV or objects from the back of a large room. Participating
in some sportswill be difficult. Acuity changes slowly, somany people do not
know their acuity has changed until they take a test. You will need an assistant
for this test.
Near Acuity
This tests the ability to see small objects that are close to you. If this
test is hard, you may need new glasses. You may be straining to read or do
tasks like threading a needle. Students with near acuity problems often avoid
reading and have poor writing skills. At all ages, weak eye sight at near
distances will affect attention, comprehension and retention. You may need
an assistant for this test.
Depth Perception
This is a test of steroscopic depth perception. Both eyes must send matching
signals to your brain to do this test. If you can see with only one eye, you
will not be able to dot his test. Depth perception is important for driving,
walking on steps and escalators, and many sports. If this test is hard, you
do not use your two eyes together correctly. Depth perception problems can
be symptoms of learning disabilities and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)
in children.
Color Vision
This tests your ability to tell the difference between colors. Most color
vision defects will not affect your sight or health. Changes in color vision
can be an early sign of important changes in your eyes and always should be
reported to your doctor immediately. Color vision problems can cause confusion
for young children. Always inform the child's teacher if a child has a color
vision problem. Eye Glasses for evaluating red and green
colors are included in the kit.
Macular Health
This is a simple test that can detect significant changes in the part of
the retina with the sharpest sight, the macula. An eye doctor must check any
problems found as soon as possible. Changes in the macular area may indicate
eye disease and must be treated as soon as possible to minimize loss of sight.
Eye Movement
Control of the muscles that move the eyes is a fine motor skill. Good eye
movements are important for many visual and perceptual skills. Good control
of eye movement is very important for children learning to read.
