Leadership of the National Center for Children's Vision and Eye Health

By engaging partners, leveraging new relationships, and conducting initial research into best practices and national trends, the National Center for Children's Vision and Eye Health mobilized a community of committed individuals with extensive knowledge of the existing challenges and opportunities in children's vision and eye health.  This effort resulted in the establishment of the National Expert Panel and the Children's Vision and Eye Health Federal Intra-Agency Task Force. 

Members of the National Expert Panel provide recommendations towards the establishment of nationally adopted Title V performance measures for vision screening and mechanisms for uniform data collection and reporting.  In addition, they serve as advisors to the National Center for Children’s Vision and Eye Health as it pursues its core goal of developing and implementing a uniform strategy for universal screening of children prior to entry to school.
