The PediaVision® Assessment Solution, PAS
powered by Plusoptix
Pass / Refer results are user-defined and based on the following:
- Near-sightedness (myopia)
- Far-sightedness (hyperopia)
- Unequal refractive power (anisometropia)
- Blurred vision, eye structure problem (astigmatism)
- Pupil size deviations (anisocoria)
The measuring principle is based on photo-retinoscopy. 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.
How does PediaVision® work?
PediaVision® utilizes an infrared camera that combines auto-refraction and video-retinoscopy. From one meter (just over a yard) away, the camera is used to take a digital photograph. The information acquired is used to automatically assess a child’s vision in as little as five seconds.
What does PediaVision® screen for?
PediaVision® screens for refractive errors, including:

It also performs a gaze analysis to help detect:
The Pediavision® solution assists in the detection of refractive errors, amblyopia, strabismus, anisocoria and media opacities. Our fully automated solution conducts a comprehensive refractive assessment, analyzes the pupil size, creates a gaze deviation chart and uses advanced digital imaging for quick reference of more advanced issues.
