Contour interaction for low contrast acuity targets
Previous investigators reported the impairment of foveal visual acuity by nearby flanking targets (contour interaction) is reduced or eliminated when acuity is measured using low contrast targets. Unlike earlier studies, we compared contour interaction for high and low contrast acuity targets using flankers at fixed angular separations, rather than at specific multiples of the acuity target’s s...
متن کاملHigh and Low Contrast Visual Acuity Are Not Affected in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
The afferent visual system may be affected by neuro-degeneration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) based on observations of visual function impairment and retinal inclusions on histopathology in ALS patients. To test the hypothesis that visual acuity is impaired in ALS, we compared three measures of visual acuity in ALS patients (n = 25) attending a multidisciplinary ALS clinic and age mat...
متن کاملEfficacy of neural vision therapy to enhance contrast sensitivity function and visual acuity in low myopia.
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of neural vision enhancement technology (NVC, NeuroVision, Inc.) to improve visual acuity and contrast sensitivity function in eyes with low myopia. SETTING Singapore Eye Research Institute, Singapore, Singapore. METHODS This noncomparative interventional case series comprised 20 Asian adults between 19 and 53 years of age with low myopia (cyclopl...
متن کاملLow-contrast letter acuity testing captures visual dysfunction in patients with multiple sclerosis.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate concurrent and predictive validity for low-contrast letter acuity (L-CLA) testing as a candidate visual component for the Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC). METHODS L-CLA testing was conducted in two MS patient cohorts. In the MSFC Validation Study, 137 participants from a Phase III trial of inteferon beta-1a (Avonex) for relapsing-remitting MS were followed...
متن کاملEvaluating loss of visual function in multiple sclerosis as measured by low-contrast letter acuity.
BACKGROUND Disturbances in visual function are common in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and are often accompanied by substantial impairments in daily functioning and quality of life. Lesions associated with these impairments frequently involve the afferent visual pathway. EXPERT CLINICAL OPINION Because these impairments are often not readily apparent on commonly used high-contrast acu...
