Feasibility and accuracy of school‐led vision screening in primary and secondary school students within the United Kingdom

Optometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Vision screening occurs once in United Kingdom (UK) children on school entry, but has recently been withdrawn in some areas. Consequently, significant refractive error and/or vision problems may go undetected. School‐led vision checking, where school staff assess vision, is increasingly advocated by the International Agency for the ...

Attention to text and pictures during storybook reading in preschool children with moderate hyperopia

Optometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Uncorrected, moderate hyperopia has been associated with poor emergent literacy skills. However, the eye movements of preschoolers have not yet been used to determine how well young, hyperopic children attend to text and pictures during storybook reading compared to emmetropic children.

Reflex maintenance of vergence eye alignment to small natural images is at risk for adults and young children

Optometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Typical human adults make reflex eye movements and computations to support stable binocular vision in milliseconds. The current project was designed to determine the impact of visual field extent on reflex vergence performance of adults and six‐ to eight‐year‐old children for images of natural scenes. Methods Twenty‐two typical adults (

Perspective of the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency on Drug Development for Childhood Myopia

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 1, Page 26-29, January 2026.
Pathologic myopia represents a global public health concern, with increasing prevalence and vision loss risk. Myopia typically develops in childhood and progresses more rapidly with earlier onset. Clinical trials exploring treatments for decelerating myopia progression are underway.

Visual performance and ocular abnormalities in deaf children and young adults: a literature review [PDF]

, 2013
Visual defects are common in deaf individuals. Refractive error and ocular motor abnormalities are frequently reported, with hyperopia, myopia, astigmatism and anomalies of binocular vision, all showing a greater prevalence in deaf individuals compared ...

Correlations between familial refractive error and children's non-cycloplegic refractions

Vision Research, 1995
We examined the spherical equivalent refractions of 237 subjects who had been seen four or more times in a longitudinal study of refractive development in normal children. We employed both photorefraction and autorefraction using a Canon R1 autorefractor.

Successful Dichoptic Therapy for Amblyopia in a Child Unable to Tolerate Occlusion Therapy due to Autism Spectrum Disorder

Case Reports in Ophthalmological Medicine, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often face challenges with occlusion therapy using eye patches owing to the sensory sensitivity, rigid behaviors, and communication difficulties associated with ASD. In this study, we report the case of a child with ASD who had significant difficulty with eye patch therapy for anisometropic amblyopia and was
