Function and Intended Application

Thank you for purchasing the Welch Allyn SureSight™ Vision Screener. Please

read and follow the instructions found in this manual before using your new Vision

Screener to ensure accurate and reliable service.

Vision Disorders and Amblyopia

Amblyopia (lazy eye) is the leading cause of monocular blindness in North

America for those under 70. However, if risk factors are detected by age 4, 95%

of patients can have their vision saved and avoid the lifelong effects of amblyopia,

which may include a dramatically higher chance of loss of sight in the other eye,

learning delays, and limitation of career choices.

Two-thirds of children with amblyopic risk factors have refractive error (when the

eye’s optics fail to clearly focus images on the retina). These include

anisometropia (unequal optical power of the two eyes), myopia and hyperopia

(near- and far-sightedness), and astigmatism (asymmetry of focus). Furthermore,

20% of teenagers suffer from a refractive error that requires corrective lenses

that can affect educational development when untreated.

The American Academy of Pediatrics, Family Practice, Ophthalmology, and

Optometry all advocate pre-school vision screening, especially a key check of

children aged 3 to 4. The latest research also indicates that it is a good idea to

check refraction in infants - and to begin treatment by age one. Early detection

reduces treatment time and expense and improves outcomes.

Traditionally, pediatricians and family physicians use visual acuity (eye) charts to

screen for refractive vision problems. Unfortunately, acuity testing of pre-

schoolers suffers from low compliance, poor specificity (false positives), and poor

sensitivity (false negatives).

11

SureSight™

That’s why Welch Allyn created SureSight™, the first objective, accurate vision

test that ensures reliable early detection of refractive error, the primary vision

disorder in children. Early detection improves outcomes and reduces treatment

duration.

The handheld SureSight vision screener addresses the problems associated with

eye chart acuity screenings - and it’s effective anywhere in the office or offsite.

And since minimal patient interaction is required, SureSight can be used for

screening infants or handicapped patients. SureSight can also automatically test

adults. With SureSight you can finally screen for serious vision problems - at well

child visits or anytime - efficiently and effectively.

First Time Set-Up

Stand

• Insert right angle connector into stand

• Optional: Two strips of hook and loop fasteners are provided on the stand.

Attach mating strips to countertop or “home” location of the stand. For best

results, clean surface and allow to dry before adhering. Hook and loop

fasteners keep stand firmly in place for use, while allowing it to be removed

as needed for offsite screenings.

• Insert battery:

1) Open the battery cover located on the underside of the unit by sliding it in

the direction indicated by the arrow and lifting out.

2) Insert the new battery into the compartment in the direction of the arrow

on the battery itself, so that the terminal end enters the compartment

first. If necessary, rotate the lever obstructing the compartment in a

clockwise direction until the compartment is unobstructed.

NOTE: Insert the battery only as directed. Failure to do so will prevent the

instrument from functioning.

3) While pushing in on the battery, rotate the lever in a counter-clockwise

direction until it covers the battery.

4) Replace the cover by lightly pushing in on the raised end until it is level

and sliding the cover in the opposite direction of the arrow until it locks

into place.

15

Controls

The buttons on the back of the instrument function as follows:

The instrument will turn off when unused for 1 minute. Any button pressed on

the SureSight will bring up results.

Pre-test Set-up:

• Push any button to turn the unit on.

• Position the patient so that the test can be conducted level with, and square

to, patient’s eyes.

• Choose the appropriate calibration using the child/adult button (child mode for

6 yr. and under). Hold button until you hear a double beep and see the desired

icon on the LCD.

• Explain the test procedure to the patient:

• “Now I will check your eyes. You will see a red light in the middle of the

blinking green lights.”

• Position yourself at eye-level and square with the face of the patient.

Left/Right Toggle & Print

• Selects single eye to re-test or

switches back to regular test.

• Prints results (hold button down

while aiming patient side of

SureSight at printer until you

hear “tah-dah”

Clear and Child/Adult

Calibration

• Clears readings

• Changes child/adult

(hold down)

“GO” Button

• Unit on: starts test

• Unit off: recalls old

readings

16

Test Procedure:

• Push the “GO” button on the unit

•

Check that the patient is fixated correctly throughout the test.

• Position the unit at the correct distance from the patient:

• When the unit is too far away, you will hear slow, low-pitched beeps. ••••

• Slowly move closer. At the correct distance (14”), you will hear a steady,

low tone. ———

• When the unit is too close, you will hear quick, high-pitched beeps.

……

• The crosshair will flash in synch with the tones.

• Look through the peephole and align the crosshair on the pupil of the

patient’s right eye. While the unit is acquiring data, you will hear a very high-

pitched chirping sound over the steady low tone. °°°°°

• If you are not acquiring data (steady tone without acquiring data chirps):

• Scan around the pupil in an outward-moving spiral until chirps begin, then

hold this location.

• Ask the patient if they can see the red light.

• When the test of the right eye is complete, you will hear the “tah-dah”

sound. (Testing resumes after 1 second, so you do not need to press any

buttons for the left eye test.)

• Without changing position, rotate the unit to the left eye and align the

crosshair over the pupil. Repeat test.

• At the end of the test, you will hear the “tah-dah” sound again.

• If the unit has not gathered enough good readings from either eye, you will

hear 5 tones when the test stops. ----- Youmust re-test that eye.

• To stop a test at any time, hold any button until 5 tones sound.
