Screening for Significant Refractive Error Using a Combination of Distance Visual Acuity and Near Visual Acuity
PURPOSE To explore the effectiveness of using a series of tests combining near visual acuity (NVA) and distance visual acuity (DVA) for large-scale screenings for significant refractive error (SRE) in primary school children. METHOD Each participant underwent DVA, NVA and cycloplegic autorefraction measurements. SREs, including high myopia, high hyperopia and high astigmatism were analyzed. C...
متن کاملInvestigation of visual acuity and residual refractive error after cataract surgery in patients with senile cataract by phacoemulsification
Background and Aim: Vision improvement and reduction of refractive errors are considered as important goals of cataract surgery. The purpose of this study was to evaluate residual refractive errors after cataract surgery in the patients with senile cataract in Shahid Rahimi Hospital in Khorramabad City between 2017 and 2018. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 178 patients...
متن کاملChart 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 کاملvalidity of uncorrected visual acuity measured in vision screening programs for detecting refractive errors
purpose: uncorrected visual acuity is the only variable measured in vision screening programs in many countries worldwide. the aim of this study was to calculate the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value of the uncorrected visual acuity in the screening programs for the diagnosis of refractive errors. methods: in this cross-sectional study, of 4,157 students in the first year of primar...
