Title	Oklahoma State Department of Health trainers of vision screening providers manual
Authors	Oklahoma. Maternal and Child Health Service.
Publisher	Oklahoma State Department of Health
Publication Date	2012-10
Publication type	Manual
Subject	Vision--Testing. Vision disorders in children--Diagnosis. Pediatric optometry.
Purpose	Routine vision screenings have become standard practice in the school setting. School vision screening is one tool to assist in detecting vision problems. Regardless of the setting, there are standards of practice that make vision screening a more reliable and cost-effective health strategy. This document provides guidance and practical information to train the trainers of vision screeners. School screening does not replace a comprehensive eye examination by an eye care professional. The purpose of a vision screening is to identify children in need of a referral to an optometrist or ophthalmologist for a comprehensive eye examination. As is the case with any health screening, some children who should be referred will be missed and some children will be referred for a complete vision examination who should have passed the screening.; In 2006, the Oklahoma Legislature passed a law, Oklahoma Vision Screening Act, 70 O.S. sect. 1210.2824, requiring parents of all children entering Kindergarten, First, or Third grade to provide documentation of a completed vision screening by a certified vision screener upon school enrollment.
