Chart for visual acuity screening.
SIR, -I read with great interest the paper by Wong and Kaye on a suggested chart for visual acuity screening.' However, I was surprised to find that they recommended widespread clinical use of this chart without any clinical data to confirm its suitability. The statistical argument they use is compelling, but surely a comparison with other methods of acuity testing should be undertaken to confi...
متن کاملComputerized method of visual acuity testing: adaptation of the amblyopia treatment study visual acuity testing protocol.
PURPOSE To report a computerized method for determining visual acuity in children using the Amblyopia Treatment Study visual acuity testing protocol. METHODS A computerized visual acuity tester was developed that uses a programmed handheld device that uses the Palm operating system (Palm, Inc, Santa Clara, California).

متن کاملLETTER TO THE EDITORS A CHART DEMONSTRATING VARIXTiONS IN ACUITY WITH RETINAL POSITION Visual acuity
Visual acuity is d&ned as the reciprocal of the visual angle, in minutes. subtended by a just resolvable stimulus. This critical dimension can be the gap in a Landolt C, the spatiat period of a grating or the offset of a vernier. etc. Acuity declines progressively from the fovea out to the periphery of the retina. It is down to half its maximum value at an eccentricity of only 30 min according ...
متن کاملOn the statistical reliability of letter-chart visual acuity measurements.
PURPOSE To determine boundary values of test-retest reliability and sensitivity to acuity change that are unlikely to be exceeded in any clinical situation, for a popular visual acuity chart (Lighthouse/ETDRS) with three scoring methods; to discuss general methodological issues associated with statistical accuracy of optotype chart testing; and to link measures of test reliability to measures o...
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...
