Any abnormal findings on visual screening should prompt referral to an ophthalmologist. If the evaluation suggests strabismus, characterization of the deviation is helpful to the ophthalmologist. Monocular strabismus is suspected if one eye is consistently preferred for fixation.
CPT code 99173, 99174, and 99177 are used for vision screening. Visual acuity testing is normally performed as part of a pediatric preventive (well-child) visit.
