  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

A consecutive series of 483 children were eva-luated through questionnaires to parents regarding strabismus, low vision and other eye disorders during our 3-year-old health check program. The results were compared with acutual ophthalmological findings in these children.

We detected 14 children with strabismus in the present series. Out of these 14, the presence of stra-bismus was noted by their parents only in 4 (29%), the remaining 10 (71%) being overlooked. Out of the other 469 non-squinting children verified by us, 8 (1.7%) were misjudged by the parents as having strabismus.

Out of 22 children in the whole series verified to suffer from low vision, only one child was reported in the questionnaire by the parents. The other 21 (95%) were overlooked by their parents. Out of the remaining 461 normal children, 15 (3.3%) were reported by their parents as apparently low vision.

The present findings indicate that mass-screening attempts to identify strabismus and low vision through questionnaires are of occasional and limited value when applied to 3-year-old children.
