Finally, a child-friendly vision test that's automatic, objective, and takes just seconds.
Vision disorders are one of the most prevalent health problems children have, and in pre-schoolers, the majority are undetected. Left untreated, these disorders often lead to amblyopia ("lazy eye") -- the leading cause of monocular blindness in North Americans under 70. That's why Welch Allyn created SureSight™, the first objective, accurate vision test that ensures reliable early detection of refractive error, the primary vision disorder in children. The hand-held SureSight™ vision screener addresses the problems associated with eye chart acuity screenings -- and it's effective anywhere in the office or offsite.

• Requires minimal cooperation, making it ideal for use on young children, the disabled, and when there is a language barrier.
• Lights and sounds engage the patient's attention.
• Automatically measures and indicates abnormal readings - no provider interpretation is required.
• Screens for common vision problems, including near- and farsightedness (myopia/hyperopia), astigmatism (asymmetrical focus), and anisometropia (unequal power between eyes).
