There seem to be so many vision charts available, which charts are recommended in the Minnesota Vision Screening Guidelines for children under age 6?
A. Visual acuity screening in the schools is recommended for children participating in the Early Childhood Screening program and students in grades 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10. It is also recommended for transfer students, students receiving a special education evaluation, and upon parent, teacher or student request. The 10 foot HOTV or the LEA chart with 50% spaced rectangle boxes around each line is the MDH recommendation for children ages 3-6. Good-Lite manufactures the charts; however, they are available through other distributors. Following are the MDH approved visual acuity charts. They are available from the vendors listed at the end of this section.
