Screening Leads to Referral

Captions available

The idea

Screening tools identify possible vision problems; they do not diagnose them.

In practice

When a screening suggests a problem, the provider may refer the patient to an eye specialist, such as an optometrist or ophthalmologist.

Where people slip

Report screening results to the provider; do not tell the patient what the result means.
