Article Synopsis
- - The study assessed the effectiveness of a portable autorefractor, QuickSee Free (QSF), in detecting refractive errors in school-aged children in The Gambia, comparing it to a standard eye examination method (cycloplegic retinoscopy).
- - Involving 101 children, the results showed that the QSF had moderate correlation with physician measurements for spherical equivalent, sphere, and cylinder values but typically underestimated these measures.
- - Sensitivity and specificity rates indicated that QSF was fairly accurate at detecting myopia, anisometropia, and astigmatism, demonstrating good predictive ability according to the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus (AAPOS) guidelines.
