    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmic Optometry
    • Pediatric Vision Screening
    • Visual Performance Assessment

    Background:

    • Evaluating saccadic performance is crucial for understanding visual function.
    • Existing methods for saccadic assessment can be time-consuming or require specialized personnel.
    • There is a need for accessible and objective tools for vision screening in children.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and describe the New York State Optometric Association K-D Test.
    • To present normative data for the NYSOA K-D Test.
    • To highlight the test's utility as an objective, indirect method for evaluating saccadic performance.

    Main Methods:

    • A sample of 1202 children aged 6-14 years was screened.
    • The New York State Optometric Association Vision Screening Battery was utilized.

  • The NYSOA K-D Test was administered as part of the screening battery.

    • Main Results:

    • The NYSOA K-D Test was found to be quick and easy to score.
    • The test can be administered by individuals without specialized eye care training.
    • Normative data for saccadic performance in children aged 6-14 years was collected.

    Conclusions:

    • The NYSOA K-D Test provides an objective and indirect measure of saccadic performance.
    • The test is suitable for administration by non-eye care practitioners.
    • This screening tool offers valuable normative data for pediatric vision assessment.
