Development and validation of a questionnaire for assessing parents' health literacy regarding vision screening for children: a Delphi study.

Preschool vision screening is recommended to reduce the incidence of amblyopia that persists into adulthood. However, parent's perceptions regarding the importance of screening and early intervention may constitute a significant barrier to seeking vision exams and pursuing treatment. The aim of this study is to develop and validate a questionnaire for assessing parent's awareness, perception and health literacy of children's vision tests.
