Vision Screening

The Hutto Lions Club offers free vision screens for children between the ages of 6 months and 6 years of age.
Did you know that less than 5% of preschool children receive an eye exam and less than 22% receive a vision screening? An average of 20% of the children that receive a Lions KidSight Vision Screening are recommended to receive a complete eye exam. Between July 21, 2021 and February of 2022, over 13,000 children have been screened in our district, with over 2,700 being referred for further vision testing.

Vision Screening Equipment Information

The Spot Vision Screener is a handheld, portable device designed to help users quickly and easily detect vision issues in patients from 6 months of age to adult. Spot screens both eyes at a distance of 3 feet so as not to cause anyone discomfort. The touch-screen display has a one-touch activation system, simple management of patient data, and easy configuration for both vision screening and autorefraction applications.
If you have children that need a vision screen, or if you are interested in volunteering at screening events, please contact us. The service is free and available to all children in the community of Hutto.
