This proposal is for the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) to service as one of five clinical centers designed to develop an effective and efficient battery of screening tests to identify those 3- and 40 year-old Head Start children in need of further vision care for amblyopia, strabismus, and/or significant refractive error, that are the prevalent significant vision disorders of early childhood. To accomplish these goals, a battery of vision screening tests will be administered to 1278 three- and four year-old children enrolled in Head Start throughout Philadelphia. The battery consists of tests chosen for their design characteristics, validity, and applicability to the preschool population, and includes the Lea visual acuity test at distance, the Random Dot E and Retinomax Autorefractor. This battery of tests will be administered at Head Start sites by lay people (Head Start parents), which ensures availability of screeners, utilizes persons with a vested interest in benefitting children within their community, empowers communities toward self improvement and maximizes the applicability of this model to other communities. Each child who fails the screening or is untestable, and a randomly selected subset of children who pass the screening, will undergo a comprehensive eye examination at the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO). The examination will serve as the definitive method, or gold standard for detection of the target disorders will be determined for each of the screening battery tests alone, and in combination. This application documents: a) access of the PCO Clinical Center to 1750 children enrolled in Head Start and b) that facilities and personnel are available for conducting vision screenings at the Head Start sites and for conducting gold standard eye examinations. Complete details of the VIP Study rationale, design and methods are contained in the MP, which is submitted with the Study Chair application.

该提议是宾夕法尼亚州验光学院（PCO）作为五个临床中心之一的服务，旨在开发有效，有效的筛查测试，以识别那些需要进一步的视力照料的孩子，需要对弱视，斜视和/或大量的重点误差，这是早期的观察差异很大的差异，这是早期观察不足的孩子。为了实现这些目标，一系列视力筛查测试将被给予1278名三岁和四岁的孩子，他们在整个费城都入门。电池由为其设计特征，有效性和对学龄前儿群的适用性选择的测试组成，并包括距离时的LEA视力测试，随机点E和视网膜自动捕集器。这项测试将由外行人（启动父母）在头开始站点进行管理，这确保了筛查人员的可用性，利用对社区内的儿童受益的人，使社区能够自我改善，并最大程度地提高此模型对其他社区的适用性。每个未能筛查或无法测试的孩子，并且通过筛查的随机选择的子集将在宾夕法尼亚州验光学院（PCO）进行全面的眼科检查。该检查将用作确定的方法，或仅针对每种筛选电池测试的目标疾病检测到目标疾病的金标准。该申请文件：a）PCO临床中心访问1750名入门的儿童，b）设施和人员可以在头开始站点进行视觉筛查并进行金标准眼科检查。 MP中包含VIP研究理由，设计和方法的完整详细信息，该详细信息与研究主席申请一起提交。
