Accessory iris membranes: Removing the veil.

Purpose: To report a case of a young adult with dense bilateral accessory iris membranes (AIMs).

Observations: AIMs can influence vision by multiple mechanisms. We discuss clinical examination and imaging considerations that can help parse optical and refractive complications to better guide intervention discussions.

Analysis of vision screening failures in a school-based vision program (2016-19).

Background: Vision screenings of a school-based program were conducted in state-mandated grades (pre-kindergarten [pre-K] or kindergarten [K], 1st and 8th grade), and nonmandated grades (2nd to 7th).

Methods: During school years 2016-19, 51,593 pre-K to 8th grade students from 123 Baltimore City Public Schools underwent vision screenings, with 85% of the schools qualifying for Free and Reduced Price Meals. Assessments included distance visual acuity, Spot photoscreening, stereopsis, and cover testing.
