    When refractive errors in children are not treated, the child may be at risk of developing ambylopia, where vision may remain permanently blurry. [30] Because young children typically do not complain of blurry vision, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children have yearly vision screening starting at three years old so that unknown refractive errors or other ophthalmic ...

    Margin "recipes" are being developed that will create linear equations and algorithms that account for "normal" variations. These rules are created from a normal population, and are applied to the treatment plan off-line. Possible side effects include random errors from uniqueness of the target
