The accuracy of screening tests with revision of the Vision Examination Program for 3-Year-Old Children in Tsubame City was determined. The study included 910 children, who underwent examinations at the Tsubame public health center over 20 months from April 2017 to October 2018. Target periods were: Period A, when secondary visual acuity tests were conducted at the health center for children who did not undergo the primary visual acuity test at home and for whom the test could not be conducted; Period B, when secondary visual acuity tests were conducted at the health center for all children irrespective of the results of the primary visual acuity test conducted at home; and Period C, when objective refraction examinations were conducted. We studied the issuance of slips for complete examinations, number of children who underwent medical examination at medical institutions, and the results of medical examinations and positive rates. Slips for complete examinations were issued to three children (1.33%) in Period A, 38 children (10.92%) in Period B, and 37 children (11.01%) in Period C; two children underwent medical examinations (66.67%) in Period A, 28 children (73.68%) in Period B, and 31 children (83.78 %) in Period C. True positives were 100.00% for Period A, 92.86% for Period B, and 87.10% for Period C. False positives were 0% for Period A, 7.14% for Period B, and 12.90% for Period C. For Period C, the issuance of slips for complete examinations and percentage of children who underwent medical examination at medical institutions increased. It was unclear about the accuracy of the screening test by the introduction of objective refraction test, but the rate of visits to medical institutions increased.
