According to the National Center for Children’s Vision and Eye Health, “Without early detection and treatment, uncorrected vision disorders can impair child development, interfere with learning, and even lead to permanent vision loss…One of the greatest concerns is that vision loss will impact a child’s quality of life, affecting financial, social, and employment opportunities over his or her lifespan.” By ensuring every child has access to vision screenings and proper eyewear, we can empower them to reach their full potential! 🧒✨ #VisionMatters #ChildrensHealth #ClearSightBrightFuture Learn more: https://bit.ly/3WruyOS Source: https://bit.ly/3Wg7Vx3

About us
GoCheck’s apps detect common vision disorders early, while they can still be treated. Our first product, GoCheck Kids, serves over 6,000 pediatric teams in the U.S. and Europe in their quest to prevent vision impairment, the most prevalent disabling condition among children in the U.S. and many countries. Vision diseases usually lead to compromised learning, blindness, and even death. GoCheck Kids made early screening affordable, reducing the cost by over 60% by leveraging the iPhone’s manufacturing scale. It’s also FDA-registered and CE certified. Eight of the leading children's hospitals (e.g. Boston Children’s, Stanford, CHLA, Texas Children's) voted GoCheck the #1 global pediatric health startup at SXSW 2018. Our Co-Founder and Chief Innovation Officer is David Huang, co-inventor of Optical Coherence Tomography, the most widely used diagnostic in ophthalmology. GoCheck is backed by Interwest Partners (90 IPOs) and Marc Benioff (Salesforce founder/CEO).

Ensuring good eyesight from an early age is crucial for children’s development. 🧒 By detecting potential issues early on, you can take the necessary steps to provide them with the best care and support. 💙 #VisualAcuityTesting #EarlyDetection #EyeCareMatters Learn more: https://bit.ly/42JNWIn Source: https://bit.ly/3wktn94
