1. Children’s first vision screening should be scheduled as soon as they turn 5 years-of-age.
a.
True
b.
False
ANSWER:
False
RATIONALE:
Ideally, all children should have their vision screened by age 2. This is even more important
for children who have developmental delays or certain medical conditions (e.g., low birth
weight, premature birth, FAS, Down syndrome) because they have a higher risk of
experiencing vision disorders. Children’s vision should also be tested anytime there is
concern about their ability to see accurately.
