The American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus recommends the vision evaluation in the newborns, at 6 months /12 months, 1-3 years of age, 3-5 years and beyond 5 years.

Many children are somewhat farsighted (hyperopic), but can also see clearly even at distance.
A chart specifically designed for VA assessment for the paediatric population has been included in the Optonet Vision Unit. The chart consists of single lines of 5 symmetrical letters with uniform contour interaction, according to international guidelines.
There are limitations on the pattern VEP for assessment of visual acuity in infants: (1) the testing equipment is expensive and not widely available; (2) technical expertise is required for conducting the procedure and interpreting the responses; (3) it can be difficult to obtain a measurable response from infants with such oculomotor ...
