The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether changes had occurred in visual screening procedures used in British Columbia schools during the last five years. The findings were obtained from a 95% return of questionnaires sent to the 75 school districts in British Columbia. A majority of districts continued to rely primarily on the use of far-point acuity testing by means of an eye-chart. Greater use of learning assistance teachers and of community vision specialists - optometrists and ophthalmologists - appears now to be made when children have reading difficulties.
