A Plusoptix vision screener empowers Pediatricians, Head Start offices, Lions Clubs, Kid Sight Programs, and School nurses to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children starting age 5 months and up. The earlier a vision disorder or media opacity is detected the better it can be treated, and Amblyopia, i.e. a lazy eye, can be prevented.
Plusoptix Vision Screeners use the measuring principle of a transillumination test. Unlike other transillumination tests (e.g. Red Reflex test), Plusoptix vision screeners avoid glare of the patient, by using infrared light. The pupils remain large even without dilation. Further, the Plusoptix transillumination test and pupil evaluation feature helps make concussion assessments even easier.
Instrument-based vision screening with Plusoptix vision screeners can help increase the number of children an organization can screen in a limited time, while having an eye on cost efficiency. Screening 80-100 children per hour is no longer a rarity.
Plusoptix vision screeners are the only vision screeners that feature on-screen HOTV critical line testing, making overall results even more reliable and trustworthy. Children who pass instrument-based vision screening with a Plusoptix vision screener are to perform an HOTV critical line test on-screen to meet the requirements of typical state guidelines and best practice.
Evidence-based vision screening with Plusoptix vision screeners meets the guidelines of the 2016 AAP Policy statement "Visual Assessment in Infants, Children, and Young Adults by Pediatricians" and is eligible for CPT Code 99177 reimbursement. The all new Plusoptix HOTV critical line testing feature is eligible for CPT Code 99173 reimbursement.
