Objective measurement of contrast sensitivity function using contrast sweep visual evoked responses.
AIM/BACKGROUND The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) measurement provides information that is not accessible by standard visual acuity determinations. The contrast sweep pattern reversal visual evoked responses (CSVER) technique was used to objectively measure the CSF in clinical practice. METHODS The contrast thresholds were measured at five spatial frequencies in 10 normal subjects. The C...
متن کاملRapid Objective Assessment of Contrast Sensitivity and Visual Acuity With Sweep Visual Evoked Potentials and an Extended Electrode Array.
Purpose Sweep visual evoked potentials (sVEPs) provide an implicit, objective, and sensitive evaluation of low-level visual functions such as visual acuity and contrast sensitivity. For practical and traditional reasons, sVEPs in ophthalmologic examinations have usually been recorded over a single or a limited number of electrodes over the medial occipital region. Here we examined whether a hig...

survival in elderly patients but enormously enhances the quality of remaining life. How often hypopituitarism is responsible for postural hypotension is unclear, but pointers seen in our patients included low serum thyroxine concentrations without the expected raised thyroid stimulating hormone, hyponatraemia, and disproportionately pale facies. Visual evoked potential and contrast sensitivity ...
متن کاملContrast Sensitivity versus Visual Evoked Potentials in Multiple Sclerosis
PURPOSE To compare the Cambridge contrast sensitivity (CS) test and visual evoked potentials (VEP) in detecting visual impairment in a population of visually symptomatic and asymptomatic patients affected by clinically definite multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Fifty patients (100 eyes) presenting with MS and 25 healthy subjects (50 eyes) with normal corrected visual acuity were included in th...
متن کاملKnowledge alters visual contrast sensitivity.
Research has shown that the visual system's sensitivity to variations in luminance (visual contrast) within a particular area of the retina is affected in a bottom-up fashion by the ambient contrast levels in nearby regions. Specifically, changes in the ambient contrast in areas surrounding the target area alter the sensitivity to visual contrast within the target area. More recent research has...
