FAQ
Are the assessments any different from what the optometrist or the ophthalmologist are already performing?
Standard eye tests are designed to detect eyesight problems (eg. Myopia, Astigmatism etc) or eye health, pathological/structural problems (eg. Cataract/Retinal Diseases etc). Referrals from us are often made to the Ophthalmologists for further assessments and treatment in the presence of a structural eye problem.
Our assessments include various components of visual efficiency, such as eye tracking, eye focusing, eye teaming etc. Additional tests are also conducted by our educator to check for visual perceptual skills and eye-hand coordination. These results will allow us to gain an indepth knowledge of the functional vision of a child and to help remediate difficulties.
How long are the assessments?
Depending on the signs and symptoms, a screening can range from 30min to 40min while a learning related vision assessment may take 60min to 120min, requiring 2 visits at times.
Do you provide a report?
Yes, a report is provided for full assessments, and it should be relayed to the Paediatrician, Developmental Specialists, Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Specialist Educators, or other various professionals who are also engaged to assist the child.
