Vision Screener criteria

Spot Vision Screener's criteria was developed in accord with the American Academy of
Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabimus (AAPOS) and American Academy of Pediatrics
(AAP) recommendations for instrument based vision screening. The criteria is age specific
to assist with early detection of amblyopic risk factors in children.
