[Prevalence of visual impairment in school-age children: Data analysis from PlanVue® pilot project].

Purpose: To assess the prevalence of visual disturbances among school-aged children in prioritized education zones in France.

Methods: The PlanVue® pilot project was designed to detect and manage visual disturbances in school-aged children in the prioritized education areas of the city of Nanterre, France. During this pilot study, a cohort of 515 children aged 4 to 13 years underwent a school vision screening between January and March 2019, consisting of an overall evaluation of the child's visual behavior, measurement of uncorrected visual acuity in each eye, objective refraction with a photoscreener and strabismus screening.

Objective Evaluation of Vergence Disorders and a Research-Based Novel Method for Vergence Rehabilitation.

Purpose: We performed video-oculography to evaluate vergence eye movement abnormalities in students diagnosed clinically with vergence disorders. We tested the efficiency of a novel rehabilitation method and evaluated its benefits with video-oculography cross-correlated with clinical tests and symptomatology.

Methods: A total of 19 students (20-27 years old) underwent ophthalmologic, orthoptic examination, and a vergence test coupled with video-oculography.

[Early visual screening appears essential to detect complete amblyopia risk and to treat strabismus earlier].

Introduction: Early medical examinations performed in 2-, 4-, 9-, and 24-month-olds need to set up a technique adapted to infants and children. The aim of this study was to describe the technique and the results of screening performed by physicians of the Hauts-de-Seine district in 2004.

Patients And Methods: Over 1 year, 17 participating centers of the Maternal and Infant Welfare department of the Hauts-de-Seine district (France) included 1366 children at the 9- and 24-month medical consultation.

[Visual screening in 3- to 5-year-old preschool children: Maternal and Infant Welfare evaluation program in the Hauts-de-Seine district, France].

Introduction: Prevalence of visual impairment is estimated at 15% at the age of 5 years. Early visual screening is essential to prevent the risk of amblyopia and treat strabismus. The Maternal and Infant Welfare department of the Hauts-de-Seine district (France) organized a systematic visual screening during a routine health check-up in 3- to 4-year-old preschool children.
