【Purpose】Through our cooperation with a pediatrics clinic that had introduced Spot Vision Screener (SVS), we examined the detection rates of refractive errors and strabismus and reported the effect of the cooperation. 【Subjects and Methods】Subjects were 1422 children who received the SVS examination at Pediatrics Clinic between September 2015 and June 2016. Of 1422, 47 subjects were found with abnormality and were referred to eye clinic. Age distribution of the 1422 children and treatment for the 47 subjects were investigated. 【Results】Of the 1422 subjects (average age, 3.2 ± 2.3 years) who received the SVS examination at pediatrics Clinic, 54 (3.8%) subjects were found with abnormality and 47 (87%) of them visited eye clinic. As shown by the SVS results, their visual abnormalities included astigmatism (47 eyes), hyperopia (9 eyes), myopia (2 eyes), anisometropia (5 subjects), and esotropia (8 subjects). In the 41 subjects who had been examined by both SVS and retinoscopy, their refractive errors obtained by both methods were compared. While no significant difference was observed between spherical equivalents measured by both methods, cylindrical equivalents obtained by the SVS were significantly greater than the values by retinoscopy. For the 47 subjects, 24 subjects (13 with hyperopic astigmatism, 8 with anisometropia, 2 with mixed astigmatism, 1 with myopic astigmatism, and 2 with esotropia) (repeatedly counted cases included) received prescription eyeglasses, 12 subjects (4 with hyperopic astigmatism, 7 with mixed astigmatism, and 1 with myopic astigmatism) were followed up, and 11 subjects did not need any treatment. Of the 24 subjects who received prescription glasses, 10 (41.7%) received the prescription before the vision testing in health check program for 3-year-olds children and 14 (58.3%) already had the checkup. Of the 14 prescribed with glasses, 11 subjects had normal findings and did not receive refraction examination, 3were found with refractive errors. 【Conclusion】Through the cooperation with a pediatrics clinic that had introduced the SVS examination, early detection and initiation of treatment could be achieved in the early sensitive period and even cases that had been overlooked in a regular health-check program for 3-yearolds children could be detected.
