Abstract
Optimum vision readiness is essential on today's technologically advanced battlefield. A vision readiness screening of 4,825 active duty personnel at 13 Department of Defense sites from September through December 1997 revealed 4,021 (83.3%) not vision ready: 500 (10.4%) had substandard visual acuity, 1,249 (25.9%) had deficient optical devices, and 3,562 (73.8%) had eye health-related deficiencies. This suggests a more effective ongoing vision readiness process should be implemented to ensure all personnel are vision ready prior to deployment.
