Vision screening is a process used to detect potential vision problems in individuals. It is typically conducted by healthcare professionals, such as optometrists or pediatricians, and involves a series of tests to evaluate visual acuity, depth perception, color vision, and eye coordination. Vision screening is important for early detection and treatment of common eye conditions, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, as well as more serious conditions like amblyopia and strabismus. The goal of vision screening is to identify individuals who may need further evaluation by an eye care specialist and to prevent vision problems from affecting a person's quality of life.
