Area Deprivation and Social Vulnerability Are Associated with Pediatric Vision Screening Outcomes in the University of California, Irvine EyeMobile Program.

Children in Q4 neighborhoods had higher referral rates and were more likely to require new spectacles despite passing screening.

Myopia was less common, whereas astigmatism was more common in Q4.

After adjustment, both poor BCVA and amblyopia suspect status increased across quartiles (p-trend < 0.001).

Significant interactions were observed, with stronger Q4 versus Q1 effects among Hispanic (aOR: 1.87) and Asian (aOR: 1.62) children, but not among Caucasian children.
