Abstrakt		Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of two different screening procedures for the detection of visual acuity in comparison with a complete visual exam by an ophthalmologist. Methods: Children attending regular systematic check ups-from the first, third, fifth and seventh grade in the school year 2003/4 were included in the study. We used two different screening procedures-the Snellen tables and the R 7 apparatures and we compared them with the ophthalmologists exam. We also compared the results according to region, sex and age. Result: 621 children were included in the study. The results different somewhat with the s usage of different methods. We detected some false positive values when using the apparatus R 7 method, especially in first grade children. The differences between the two methods, though, were not statistically significant. Conclusion: We conclude that the apparatus R 7 method is not suitable for children under the age of six years, since they accommodate during the procedure. The results of these screening methods are compatible with the number of patients with errors of visual acuity recorded by the Slovenian Office of National Statistics.
