1 Eye and Vision Screening Procedures, Part 5 Department of Blind and Vision Impaired Created by Carmen Valdes & Lisa Shearman

2 Eye and Vision Screening Procedures Learning Objectives for Part 5: 1. Methods for testing vision for infants and toddlers. a.Testing eyes for near fixation. b.Testing eyes for far fixation. c.Testing for tracking. d.Testing for eye preference.

3 Fixation on Object The Near Fixation (at 8-18 inches) tests the child’s eyes while focusing on an object or light. The examiner notes whether the child alternates, prefers fixation with one eye, or can hold fixation well with either eye. Type of object to use: 4x5 inch object at 2 months old 1 inch object at 4 months old Cereal at 6 months old The Distance Fixation (at 10 feet) tests the child’s eyes while focusing on an object or light. Type of object to use: 4 inch object at 9 months old Recommendations: Pass: Steady fixation Refer: Fleeting or not able to fixate

4 Tracking (horizontal, vertical) Tracking is used to test visual efficiency using eye teaming (identification of any eye turns) and eye tracking (large eye tracking ability).  3 months 50 degrees either side of midline horizontally at 12 inches in front of the child’s eyes 30 degrees above and below midline vertically  6 months Full 180 degree arc with smooth transition over midline  10 months Full 180 degree arc without moving the head Recommendations: Pass: Smooth Tracking Refer: Jerky or not present

5 Eye Preference Testing for eye preference can consist of refusal of the child to have the right eye covered while not objecting to having the left eye covered is interpreted as evidence for reduced visual acuity in the left eye. An example of preference is when the child consistently turns head to use one eye to look at objects. There should be no eye preference Recommendations: Pass: No eye preference Refer: Demonstrate a preference

6 Shifts Gaze By 4 months, the baby should be able to shift gaze between objects At 4 months Able to shift gaze between two objects At 6 months Smoothly shift gaze across midline Recommendations: Pass: Yes Refer: No
