Vision screening is an easy and comparatively inexpensive way to identify from a large number of people who may be at risk of having a potentially blinding condition later. Mostly the symptoms start showing from an early age, so KHEA has been contacting schools as this is a second familiar environment where children spend a significant portion of their time and teachers play a vital role in their lives.
We are providing information and a one-day training on the screening method to school teachers to be able to identify vision problems and can discuss with the parents or guardians to ensure that the child has an eye exam by an eye doctor.
