A significant proportion of Orange County preschoolers with refractive errors and amblyopia have unmet refractive correction needs. The PlusoptiX S12C photoscreener is an adequate screening device for the UCI EyeMobile for Children program, although modification of device referral criteria may lead to increased PPV. Further research is necessary to understand and overcome the barriers to childhood vision care in our community.
