| Summary | The early visual screening of children plays a critical role in promoting visual development, especially for those with visual impairments. Among various approaches, eye-tracking based visual assessment has emerged as a promising tool, particularly for infants, toddlers, and children with developmental disabilities who are unable to complete traditional vision tests. The object of this study is to design and investigate the effectiveness of using a deep learning based, individualized eye-tracking system to assess visual function, specifically visual acuity and visual field, in typical preschool children and infants under the age of three. This study aims to establish a reliable, noninvasive visual screening method that accommodates the diverse needs and abilities of young children. |
