Southeast Community Health Systems is offering vision testing at Greensburg schools to support the health and wellness of our students during a well-child, sports physical, or preventative visit. Early detection is key to ensuring students succeed academically and beyond. The Vision Screener tool is a handheld, portable device that allows for fast, non-invasive vision screening. If the screening shows that your child may need further care, we will contact you. You will receive a summary of the results and, if needed, a recommendation to schedule a full eye exam with an optometrist. Learn more at https://www.shchc.org/services/vision-testing.
