Description

Spot Vision Screener VS100S-B  is a portable, handheld device designed to help quickly and easily detect vision problems in patients from six months of age. The Vision Screener is an easy-to-use autorefractor that identifies refractive errors and ocular misalignment in children and adults. The portable, handheld device tests for refractive errors quickly and efficiently—from a non-invasive, 1-meter distance.

The device, the Vision Screener VS100S-B, is an all-in-one camera that measures farsightedness, nearsightedness, blurred vision, eye alignment and unequal pupil size. The Snellen method is more labor intensive because school nurses have to explain the process to each student and the test takes about 10 minutes. After the tests, parents are informed if their child needs glasses or a different prescription. The school provides resources, from bilingual optometrists to referrals to programs offering free glasses.

Accurate detection

Six Vision Risk Factors

The Spot Vision Screener VS100S-B assessment device uses a method supported by peer-reviewed clinical evidence to detect the six risk factors for amblyopia in children from six months of age.

Spot accurately detects the potential indication of these common vision problems:

• Myopia (nearsightedness)
• Hyperopia (farsightedness)
• Astigmatism (blurred)
• Anisometropia (unequal refractive power)
• Strabismus (eye misalignment)
• Anisocoria (unequal pupil size)

Binocular autorefraction for eye care professionals

For eye care professionals,  Welch Allyn VS100S is a versatile autorefractor. Its portability and speed from binocular testing help clinicians collect accurate refractive data on patients who commonly present screening challenges.

• Spot can go where you go—to multiple office locations, events, or mission trips.
• Efficiently test infants to seniors and patients with limited mobility or other potential handicaps.
• Instant results provide refractions—monocular or binocular, plus (+) or minus (–) cylinder conventions.
• Measures horizontal and vertical eye alignment, pupil size, and pupillary distance
