It depends on the location and severity of the coloboma. There are many instances in which a colobma will create an irregular “red reflex” in the eye. A red reflex is when light is transmitted through the transparent portions of the eye and reflects off the retina, creating a reddish orange reflection in the eyes. Because iScreen Vision’s technology, called photoscreening, creates a digital red reflex image of the eye, a coloboma whose position or size interferes with a normal red reflex would normally be detected. When photoscreening is used to detect coloboma, you may hear it referred to as: Coloboma Vision Screening, Coloboma Vision Testing, Pediatric Coloboma Vision Screening, or Pediatric Coloboma Vision Testing.
