Objective To establish a community-based infant eye screening method in Pudong district in Shanghai,and to discuss the feasibility of the promotion of the infant eye screening method. Methods According to the guidelines recommended by AAP,AAPOS and AAO,"Infant Eye Screening Method" was prepared which consisted of external examination,ocular motility,red reflex examination and so on.All infants born in Pudong district accepted eye screening at 4 months,6 months and 9 months old.The suspected infants were referred. Results A total of 6 729 infants were recruited and after referral,17 infants were diagnosed as stenosis of lacrimal passage,congenital cataract,congenital microphthalmia and so on.The average time of finishing eye screening for one infant was 5.90 minutes.83.3% primary care pediatricians thought eye screening was necessary,and 93.3% thought the screening method was perfect. Conclusions According to this study,community-based "Infant Eye Screening Method" is established which was practical and easy to perform.Through the method proposed here,the ocular conditions which might result in blindness could be identified so that clinical intervention could be carried out in early age.The eye screening method with economic and sociological significance should be prompt in communities.
