For eye care professionals, Spot is a versatile vision screening device. Its portability and speed from binocular testing help clinicians to collect accurate refractive data on patients who commonly present screening challenges.
Accurate Detection
Spot accurately* detects the potential indication of these common vision problems:
Myopia (nearsightedness)
Hyperopia (farsightedness)
Strabismus (eye misalignment)
Anisocoria (unequal pupil size)
Astigmatism (blurred vision)
Anisometropia (unequal refractive power)
*Accuracy refers to the sensitivity and specificity of the screening referral recommendation.
Clinically shown to be more efficient
Evidence shows that using the Spot Vision Screener can help to dramatically reduce the time required to test vision over traditional screening tools. In one study, the Spot Vision Screener was used to test the vision of 537 elementary school students. Previous testing using a traditional screening tool took three days. With Spot, the entire population was screened in less than five hours. In addition, Spot captured definitive results on 100% of the students and 93 of them were referred for follow-up care with an eye care specialist.
