The Importance of Vision Screening
The eyes are a person’s windows to the world. Without good vision one can experience a sense of helplessness and may even suffer in other skills necessary for a full and functional lifestyle.
Utilizing the TITMUSiSeries vision screeners, you will quickly be capable of assessing whether a person’s vision is within the normal parameters. Visual abnormalities will be revealed, often motivating action for a referral for further visual examination and possibly a much-needed visual correction. Consequently, that person’s quality of life can be enhanced.
The vision screener is capable of testing functions not determined by the typical
“wall” or “eye” chart. Binocularity, muscle balance, color perception, acuity at near and far, color defi ciency, depth perception, and a myriad of other visual functions can be screened. The wall chart screens for acuity only, leaving many visual abnormalities unidentifi ed.
About the “TITMUS”
TITMUS set the standard for vision screening instruments in 1959 with the introduction of the OV7 model vision screener. Often referred to as the “TITMUS,” the older OV7 model as well as the later-generation TITMUS Model 2 are still in use in many industrial locations, optical practices, as well as schools nationwide.
The screeners are known for their durability.
As the market leader, TITMUS has developed the new TITMUSiSeries of vision screeners. Designed to meet the unique needs of the 21st century, the
TITMUSiSeries will be a welcome tool because of its convenience, accuracy, and versatility.

• The Plus Lens, +1.75, is used with the Acuity test for children. Other plus lenses
are also available as optional accessories.
• Standard testing procedure requires that acuity test is administered fi rst. If child
demonstrates poor visual acuity (20/40), it is unnecessary to administer the
Plus Lens Test. If the child demonstrates 20/30 or 20/20, administer the Plus
Lens Test.
• Children with normal vision will be unable to read the 20/20 line through the Plus
Lens. If a child can read the 20/20 line through the Plus Lens, then result is
FAIL. Blurred vision through Plus Lens is normal, clear distance vision is abnormal
and can indicate excessive farsightedness. This test is very important for school
age children.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:
Note: 1 — At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note: 2 — These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and refl ection from structures,objects and people.
a
Field strengths from fi xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fi xed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured fi eld strength in the location in which the TITMUSi400/i250/i200 is used exceeds the applicable
RF compliance level above, the TITMUSi400/i250/i200 should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, traditional measures may be necessary such as reorienting or relocating the TITMUSi400/i250/i200. b
Over the frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz, fi eld strengths should be less than 3V/m.

Recommended Separation Distance Between Portable & Mobile RF
Communications Equipment and the TITMUSi400/i250/i200
The TITMUSi400/i250/i200 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the TITMUSi400/i250/i200 can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communication equipment (transmitters) and the TITMUSi400/i250/i200 as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Astigmatism – condition in which the cornea’s curvature is asymmetrical (the eye is shaped like a football or egg instead of a baseball).
Light rays are focused at two points on the retina rather than one, resulting in blurred vision. Additional symptoms include distorted vision, eyestrain, shadows on letters, squinting and double vision.
B

Distance vision – the ability to see objects clearly at 20 ft. to infi nity.
Divergence – the slight turning out to adjust the eyes to a distant object.
E
Emmetropia – the normal refractive condition of the eye in which there is clear focus of light on the retina.
Esophoria – a muscle condition in which both eyes are open and each eye looks directly at a target, but, when covering one eye, the covered eye turns inwards.
Esotropia – “crossed eyes,” a tendency of the eye to turn inward toward the nose, when both eyes are open.
Exophoria – a muscle condition in which both eyes are open and each eye looks directly at a target, but, when covering one eye, the covered eye turns outwards.
Exotropia – “wall eyes,” this is a tendency of the eye to turn outward, away from the nose, when both eyes are open.
F
Far – distance vision.
Farsightedness – see hyperopia.
Field of vision – the entire area which can be seen at one time without shifting the head or the eyes
Fixation – directing the eye so the image centers on the fovea.
Fovea – area of clearest vision on the retina.
Fusion – coordination of the images seen by
29
30 each eye into one picture.

Glaucoma – condition caused by increased intraocular pressure which damages the optic nerve.
H
Heterophoria – a squint due to a weak muscle.
Hyperopia – also called farsightedness.
Condition in which the length of the eye is too short, causing light rays to focus behind the retina rather than on it, resulting in blurred near vision. Additional symptoms include eyestrain and squinting.

Lens – 1. the nearly spherical body in the eye, located behind the cornea that focuses light rays onto the retina. 2. a device used to focus light into the eye in order to magnify or minimizes images, or otherwise correct visual problems. Eyeglass lenses, contact lenses, and intraocular lenses are some examples.
M
Macula – part of the eye near the middle of the retina; the macula allows us to see objects with great detail.
Malingering – the intentional production of false symptoms to achieve fi nancial or other gains; for example pretending to have loss of vision to avoid military duty.
Monocular – vision with only one eye.
Muscle balance – the coordination of muscles allowing the two eyes to work together.
Myopia – also called nearsightedness.
Condition in which the length of the eye is too long, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina rather than on it, resulting in blurred distance vision. Additional symptoms include eyestrain, poor night vision or squinting.
N
Near – vision at 14 to 16 inches.
Nearsightedness – see myopia.
O
Occlusion – obstruction or “shutting” of vision from one or both eyes.
Ophthalmologist – a Medical Doctor (M.D.) who specializes in the eye. Ophthalmologists perform eye exams, treat disease, prescribe medication, and perform surgery. They may also write prescriptions for eyeglasses and contact lenses.
Optician – opticians are not doctors, but in some states they must complete training and be licensed. And in some states they can become certifi ed, after special training, to fi t contact lenses. Most opticians sell and fi t eyeglasses, sunglasses, and specialty eyewear that are made to an optometrist’s or ophthalmologist’s prescription. Many also have equipment on the premises so they can grind lenses and put them in frames without ordering from a lab.
Optometrist – doctors of optometry (O.D.s) examine eyes for both vision and health problems, prescribe glasses, and fi t contact lenses. They can prescribe many ophthalmic medications and may participate in your pre- and postoperative care if you have eye surgery. O.D.s must complete four years of post-graduate optometry school for their doctorate.
Orthophoria – ideal condition of muscle balance (balanced eyes).

P
Perimetry – charting the eye’s fi eld of vision, often using light fl ashed at various locations from the outside peripheral plane to the nasal area.
Peripheral vision – ability to perceive objects outside of the direct line of vision.
Presbyopia – loss of accommodation due to aging (usually after age 40), causing diffi culty focusing on near objects. This is caused by the loss of elasticity of the crystalline lens.
Prism – a wedge-shaped piece of glass that can bend rays of light toward its base.
Progressive lens – an eyeglass lens that incorporates both the distance and near vision correction into one lens without a line.
Pupil – the opening in the center of the iris that changes size to regulate the amount of light that enters the eye.
R
Refraction – the bending of the rays of light. Sometimes used to refer to an eye examination that determines the best corrective lenses for good vision.
Retina – the multi-layered sensory tissue, lining the back of the eye, that captures and converts light rays into electrical impulses and sends them to the brain where they are converted into images.
S
Snellen chart – a chart, often hung on a wall at a distance of 20 ft. from the subject, used for evaluating visual acuity. Symbols or letters and numbers should be legible if eyes are normal.
Strabismus – a manifestation of a muscle imbalance. Eyes that turn inward or outward.

20/10. People with 20/40 vision can see clearly at 20 feet what people with 20/20 vision can see clearly at 40 feet. In the
United States, 20/40 is the lowest uncorrected acuity required to obtain a driver’s license.
V
