DIY Vision Screening Kit

Box Mockup.jpeg

The DIY Vision Screening Kit by S.R.Gopal Rao Opticians & Optometrists is designed to make preliminary vision screening simple, fun, engaging, and accessible to everyone, especially children. This easy-to-use kit empowers parents, children, schools and families to identify early signs of vision issues such as Myopia and Astigmatism, helping children receive timely care.

​

Through fun stories and interactive activities, the kit not only raises awareness about good eye health practices but also makes the process enjoyable for kids. With rising cases of Myopia, early detection is crucial in preventing long-term vision problems, and this kit provides an effective solution to promote regular vision checks in a fun and educational way.

​

The DIY Vision Screening Kit does not replace the role of an Optometrist or an Opthalmologist. A yearly or bi-annual full eye check up is a must for each member of the family, or as recommended by your Eye Specialist. This kit helps you keep a check on you and your family's vision more frequently, from the comforts of your own home and can be used multiple times without any limits. This kit allows you to check your vision as frequently as everyday, weekly, monthly or several times in a day too! Use it as frequently as you like and as long as you like. It will help you look out for signs of Myopia or Astigmatism. This kit will help you understand and take control of your eye health from the get go! It is built for people of all age groups, with a focus on kids below the age of 9 years.


At S.R.Gopal Rao Opticians & Optometrists, we believe that good vision is essential for a bright future, especially for children. That’s why we’ve developed the DIY Vision Screening Kit—an educational tool designed to promote eye health among young ones. This kit empowers parents and children to take proactive steps in maintaining healthy eyes, ensuring that children and every member of the family can see clearly and thrive.

Get To Know The Team Behind The Kit

We started working on the kit at the beginning of May 2024. The idea to launch an easy to use, household kit such as this began in 2023, but it only started taking shape in May of this year. The story and the ideas behind the box has taken us 7 months to flesh out! But here we are, having tested this at various events, we see how excited kids can get when it comes to playing with the tools in this kit, reading the books and getting inquisitive about their eye health. We invite you indulge in this kit for the betterment of you and your family. Proper vision care can begin at home!

How-to use the Vision Screening Kit

01

Set-up the Vision Chart

Hang or stick the vision chart directly on a windowless wall at eye level. Use the sunboard for hanging on surfaces or placing on a counter for firmer support. Hang the chart at eye level in a well-lit area. Measure 10 feet from the chart with no windows, and place a chair at this point. Use a tape to mark a line at this point (10 feet from the chart).

02

Introduce the Characters

Mr. Mole: Known for his keen sense of feeling around due to poor eyesight, but he’s learning about eye health to see better.
Mr. Eagle: Known for his excellent vision, because he’s always outdoors.
Doc Chimp: The friendly doctor who helps his friends with their eye care and teaches us how we can have healthy eyes.

03

Read the Story

Teach children the importance of regular eye check-ups, balanced screen time, outdoor activities, and proper lighting when reading or doing homework. Use the storybook for assistance! It will help emphasise the importance of good eye health.

04

Conduct the Vision Test

  • Have the child sit on a chair or stand at the 10-foot line (which will be marked using a tape), ensuring the chart is at their eye level.​

  • Cover one eye with the occluder provided and read till the smallest line they can see. Ensure the child doesn’t peak.

  • If the child wears glasses, conduct the test with glasses on. Again, cover one eye with the occluder and then alternate.

  • Two people might be needed: one to point at the characters on the chart and one to assist the child in identifying the characters.

  • Repeat the process with the other eye.
