Ohio Optometrists Partner With Federal Legislators and Local Mayors in Improving Infant Eye and Vision Care

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Due to the overwhelming number of children with eye and vision problems across the United States, Ohio optometrists are devoting appointments to no-cost, comprehensive eye and vision assessments for infants between six to 12 months of age through InfantSEE®.

InfantSEE®, a public health program developed by Optometry Cares® - The AOA Foundation and Vistakon, Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc., was designed to provide professional eye care for infants nationwide at no-cost, regardless of family income or number of eligible children.

United States Senators representing Ohio expressed their support for the InfantSEE® program.

"When a vision-impaired infant wears a pair of glasses or receives much needed eye-care, a world of possibility appears," said Senator Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio). "That's why the AOA Foundation's work is so important for Ohio families seeking to create a better life for their children. The Ohio InfantSEE® Campaign improves the quality of life for Ohioans and can help create a better future."

"I hope as many Ohioans as possible take advantage of this program, which is providing a no-cost alternative for detection of eye and vision problems in infants across Ohio," said Senator Rob Portman (R-OH).

Leading members of the United State House of Representatives offered their support for the InfantSEE® program as well.

"Early eye and vision assessments are essential to a child's healthy development and I encourage all Ohio families with young children to take advantage of the InfantSEE® program," said Representative Pat Tiberi (R-Columbus).  "I also commend Ohio's optometrists for providing their time and service, as well as the American Optometric Association and the Vision Care Institute, for providing access to free eye health assessments to help provide children the best start in life."

"An infant's vision and eye health are crucial components in a child's development, and early detection of problems, especially during the first year of life, is very important," said Representative Tim Ryan (D-Youngstown, Warren). "InfantSEE® is a great program for our babies, and I encourage all parents to take advantage of this free eye assessment."

"As a parent, you always want the best for your children as they grow and develop," said Representative Jim Jordan (R-Urbana). "The InfantSEE® program helps parents as they monitor the eye and vision health of their children with assessments all over Ohio. I encourage parents to take advantage of this program to identify and correct any problems, so that they may continue to grow healthy and strong."

"It is vitally important for parents to have their infant's vision assessed, and I highly encourage Ohio families to take advantage of the InfantSEE® program," said Representative Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green).  "Protecting your child by detecting vision problems early is imperative to ensuring that any potential vision problems do not interfere with their learning."

"Given the integral role eyesight plays in learning crucial skills during a pivotal point in every child's life, I am immensely proud of this collaboration to provide eye and vision assessments to infants, and the good work Ohio's optometrists do throughout the state of Ohio," said Representative Steve Austria (R-Beavercreek). "InfantSEE® is a tremendous example of a public-private partnership that is having life-altering and positive effects on infants around the country."

"Eye care for the youngest members of the family is sometimes overlooked as signs marking vision development are often inconspicuous," said Representative Bob Gibbs (R-Lakeview).  "I am proud to support InfantSEE® as it aids in the early detection of serious eye diseases or disorders by offering comprehensive vision and eye health assessments. I urge families in Southeast Ohio to take advantage of this no-cost program, and thank the providers who are providing these important services."

"Good health practices when children are young will set them on a healthy path for life," said Representative Bill Johnson (R-Marietta). "I applaud the optometrists who are providing comprehensive eye and vision assessments for infants. As a father and grandfather, I know how important the first year of a child's life is for their long-term development, and I hope that every parent in Ohio with young children takes advantage of this opportunity."

To help protect infant vision and eye health, Mayor Sue Lesch of Norwalk, Ohio and Mayor Don Patterson of Kettering, Ohio declared May 14th through May 21st InfantSEE® Week in Ohio.

One in 10 infants is at risk from undiagnosed eye and vision problems, which, if undetected, could lead to permanent vision impairment, and in rare cases, life-threatening health risks.  However, only 14 percent of children from infancy to age six have had a comprehensive eye assessment from an eye care professional, according to the American Optometric Association's Pediatric Eye and Vision study.In Ohio, great strides are being made to ensure that potential eye and vision problems are detected early. Infant eye assessments have been available in Ohio since the InfantSEE® program launched in 2005.

"Many parents are surprised to learn that the first year of life is one of the most critical stages of a child's visual development," said Dr. Douglas Ryen, an Ohio optometrist and InfantSEE® provider. "It's the ideal time to detect eye and vision problems before these conditions worsen or cause developmental delays."

Recently, Dr. Ryen discovered firsthand why InfantSEE® assessments are so beneficial. Dr. Ryen performed a routine exam on his 8-month-old daughter, Isla, and discovered she needed glasses to address a vision problem, which if left undiagnosed could have developed into amblyopia (lazy eye) over time.

"It's difficult for anyone, including professional eye doctors, to notice vision problems in infants without a thorough eye exam," said Dr. Ryen. "Even if a child is hitting all their developmental milestones and not showing any signs of problems, there could still be something wrong with their vision. Identifying problems and beginning treatment as early as possible is important."

The InfantSEE® program launched in 2005 with support from former President Jimmy Carter, honorary national spokesperson. To date, more than 8,800 optometrists nationwide volunteer their time to provide assessments to babies in their communities.  The majority of vision problems detected include severe hyperopia (farsightedness), myopia (nearsightedness), congenital glaucoma and congenital cataract.  A less common vision problem that can also be detected during an infant's comprehensive eye assessment includes retinoblastoma (eye cancer).

In an effort to ensure healthy vision and eye health in Ohio infants, parents can bring their infant for a no-cost assessment at InfantSEE® public events in Cleveland and Toledo.

InfantSEE® assessments are complementary to the routine well-care exams a baby receives from a pediatrician or family physician.  Optometrists have the training to identify areas of risk that are critical to vision development and the skills to identify conditions that might not be detected in a routine pediatric wellness exam.  In some cases, conditions may need to be monitored, immediately treated or referred to a pediatric eye specialist.

To learn more about InfantSEE® visit www.InfantSEE.org or call toll free 888-396-EYES (3937).

About InfantSEE®

InfantSEE® is a public health program managed by Optometry Cares – The AOA Foundation. Designed to ensure that eye and vision care become an integral part of infant wellness and improve a child's quality of life, doctors of optometry provide one-time, no-cost eye and vision assessment to infants between the ages of 6 and 12 months regardless of family income or access to insurance coverage. For more information, visit www.infantsee.org.

About the American Optometric Association

American Optometric Association doctors of optometry are highly qualified, trained doctors, on the frontline of eye health and vision care, who examine, diagnose, treat, and manage diseases and disorders of the eye. In addition to providing eye and vision care, optometrists play a major role in an individual's overall health and well-being by detecting systemic diseases. Doctors of optometry have the skills and training to provide more than two-thirds of all primary eye care in the United States. The American Optometric Association represents more than 36,000 doctors of optometry, optometry students and paraoptometric assistants and technicians in nearly 6,500 communities across the country.  For more information, visit www.aoa.org.
