• Parents of children who have been classified as having 'poor eyesight' in school eye examinations are sent the examination report and an official recommendation to have the child examined by a medical institution. The results of that examination are then forwarded to the school. The actual percentage of families actually acting on this recommendation, however, is not that high. 'Poor eyesight' can involve eyestrain and poor learning rates. Given that regular medical examinations are intended as a way to screen for medical problems, their effectiveness depends directly on whether or not there is followup. I conducted a survey of the entire student body of N Elementary School, asking parents who, despite receiving an official recommendation to have their child undergo a detailed eye examination at a medical institution, had failed to do so. The results indicate that parents do not take 'poor eyesight' very seriously. The school eye test is intended as a screening test to insure effective learning in the school. The standard being that the writing on the blackboard should be readable from anywhere in the classroom, visual acuity of at least 0.7 is necessary. The purpose of testing is to guarantee that any child whose unaided vision is below this level gets the appropriate medical attention. The conclusion reached from this study is that it is possible, through health education for parents, to get parents to understand the screening function of the school eye examination, and hence to raise the percentage of those children classified as having 'poor eyesight' who actually undergo detailed examination as s result of the school's recommendation.
