Contrast sensitivity gratings in glaucoma family screening.
Contrast sensitivity was measured in the eyes of 200 consecutive patients attending the glaucoma family screening unit. One-third of the patients screened had an abnormal contrast sensitivity. Positive correlation (p less than 0.01) existed between this abnormal contrast sensitivity and cup : disc ratio, visual field loss, and age. No such correlation existed between contrast sensitivity and in...
متن کاملAbnormalities of central contrast sensitivity in glaucoma.
The detectability of foveally presented low-contrast flickering stimuli was determined for glaucoma patients, ocular hypertensives, and normal control subjects. Two types of stimuli, a homogeneous flickering field, and a counterphase flickering grating of low spatial frequency, were presented on a screen subtending 4 degrees of visual angle. The average of the contrast sensitivities to these tw...
متن کاملPeripheral cone contrast sensitivity in glaucoma
Colour vision tests for detection of glaucomatous damage frequently suffer from two problems: most tests are confined to foveal vision, whereas defects tend to appear first extrafoveally; and the modulation directions in colour space are not optimal. This paper deals with peripheral testing à la Yu, Falcao-Reis, Spileers and Arden [(1991) Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 32, 2779...
متن کاملPeripheral contrast sensitivity for sine-wave gratings and single periods.
The contrast sensitivity of the human eye has been measured as a function of eccentricity. The stimulus used was a sine-wave grating with a fixed height of 5’. in a surround of luminance that equals the average stimulus luminance. The measurements were carried out with stimulus width as the independent variable. The “local’. sensitivity for gratings was found to decrease monotonically with incr...
متن کاملContrast Sensitivity for Lime Purple and Cyan Orange Gratings
Measurements of contrast sensitivity are well established for modulations in luminance, red-green and yellow-blue color directions in color space. Relatively less work has been carried out, however, to measure contrast sensitivity in other color directions or to assess the effect of the average color of the stimulus has been largely ignored. In this study we have measured conventional contrast-...
