The Plusoptix Vision Screening devices empower primary health care providers to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children.

The purpose of the Plusoptix Vision Screening devices are to empower primary health care providers to detect the most prevalent vision disorders in children as early as possible. The earlier a vision disorder is detected the better it can be treated. Eye screening is intended to detect visual disorders including Amblyopia or lazy eye. Many visual disorders – in particular, Amblyopia – if not detected and treated during the first years of life, can lead to permanent visual impairment, which neither glasses or any other visual aid can address. Ordinary eye tests or visual acuity tests can only be administered when the child is able to speak. PlusOptix is a binocular handheld autorefractor designed for babies, children, and uncooperative patients. Plusoptix devices deliver outstanding measurement accuracy, as well as highest product quality marking it with the seal of quality “Made in Germany”. PlusOptix Vision Screening devices provide reliable measurement values of:

-Refraction (spherical equivalent)
-Pupil diameter and pupil distance
-Symmetry of corneal reflexes

With these measurement values it is possible to detect e.g. following most prevalent childhood vision disorders that may lead to the development of amblyopia (lazy eye) including:

-Hyperopia (farsightedness)
-Myopia (nearsightedness)
-Astigmatism (blurred vision)
-Anisometropia (unequal refractive power)
-Anisocoria (unequal pupil size)
-Strabismus (Eye misalignment)

The measuring principle is based on eccentric photoretinoscopy. Infrared light is projected through the pupils onto the retina. Depending on the refractive error, the reflected light forms a specific brightness pattern within the pupil. The spherical refraction is calculated based on this crescent pattern. To determine cylinder and axis, the same measurement is repeated in three meridians. The measurement with infrared light is completely innocuous. For more information please visit the website.

Plusoptix screeners and autorefractors can be used on very young children, including infants. Most models are designed to screen children starting from about 6 months of age.

Did you know that!
Uncorrected refractive errors, especially:(anisometropia, high hyperopia, myopia, or astigmatism)
are amongst the key risk factors of Amblyopia?

•Consent & setup: Parents provide permission; devices are set up in a quiet area.
•Measurement: Child stands about 1 m away and looks at the device; it measures both eyes simultaneously.
•Result: The screener displays “Pass” (no immediate concern) or “Refer” (further professional evaluation advised).

26/01/2026

For “Refer” results, caregivers are encouraged to arrange a comprehensive eye exam with a qualified eye care provider.

21/01/2026

Many school nurses, community healthcare workers, and volunteer screening programs (e.g., Lions Clubs Vision Screenings) use PlusOptix devices, such as the S12C to identify children who should be referred for a full clinical eye examination.

19/01/2026

✅ For early detection
Many children don’t realize they have vision problems or may pass a basic letter-chart test but still have underlying issues (e.g., unequal focus between eyes) that impact learning. Instrument-based screeners like PlusOptix are better at identifying these early risk factors.
