Objective.
To ascertain if parents are familiar with current recommendations on pediatric vision screening and to assess their knowledge of the roles that pediatricians, ophthalmologists and optometrists have in this screening process.
Methods.
A survey was targeted at parents to determine what the general public understands regarding vision screening.
Results.
The survey was conducted from January–May 2010.
One hundred fifty six persons responded.
Over one-third did not know the difference between eye care specialists.
Many believed opticians and optometrists receive medical school training.
Over forty percent incorrectly identified the recommended visual acuity testing age.
A large discrepancy existed regarding who should perform pediatric eye exams.
Most agreed a failed screening warranted follow-up, but there was not a uniform opinion as to when to seek care.
The majority of respondents understood amblyopia should be treated at least before age ten; although nine percent believed amblyopia could be treated at any age.
Discussion.
There is a significant lack of understanding of the current screening recommendations, difference between eye care professionals, and the importance of early treatment of amblyopia.
Conclusions.
Many parents do not understand the potential detrimental consequences of delayed care in the event their child fails a vision screening.
