Abstract

Disparities in access to pediatric vision care remain a pressing issue in the United States. School-based vision programs are regarded as a way to advance health equity, especially for disadvantaged students. While they can be beneficial, especially by providing glasses to students who need them, these programs are only part of the solution. This workshop will frame the role of school-based vision programs as part of a larger conversation about strengthening the pediatric eye care delivery system through advocacy, community engagement, research, and medical education.
