Contrast sensitivity testing can be performed quickly, is less demanding than visual field perimetry and can be easily incorporated into a busy clinical practice, according to researchers in the ...

Monocular contrast sensitivity and microperimetry are useful indicators of visual function and its impact on activities of daily living in those with AMD. Patients with AMD do not rely on binocular ...

The objective is to determine the characteristics of contrast sensitivity of the human vision system (HVS) by experimental measurements employing a CRT. Said characteristics form the basis for the ...

Although visual acuity is the most frequently used primary outcome measure in clinical trials of treatments for choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), ...

Children who undergo primary congenital glaucoma surgery had better visual acuity (VA) when wearing contact lenses compared with spectacles.

Researchers also found correlations between contrast sensitivity function and age, HbA1c, and type 1 diabetes (T1D) duration under different lighting conditions. Individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) ...

Patients who underwent refractive lens exchange with a diffractive multifocal IOL had contrast sensitivity comparable with that of preoperative levels under photopic and mesopic lighting conditions.

Researchers previously believed contrast sensitivity function -- the minimum level of black and white that a person needs to detect a pattern -- was mainly dictated by the optics of the eye and ...

Anyone who has played video games for too long is probably familiar with the sore, tired and dry eyes that accompany extended bouts of shooting things with rocket launchers. So it might come as a ...
