Many options are available for vision screening charts. Is one better than another?
No, single, perfect eye chart exists. You want to select charts that are backed by science, or evidence-based. Proportionally spaced charts in ETDRS format with LEA Symbols or HOTV letters should be appropriate for children from age 3 through 2nd grade. For older children, Tumbling E or proportionally spaced charts in ETDRS format with Sloan letters should be appropriate for children older than 3rd grade.
