Glare Testing Devices

Tuesday, June 16, 2009
Glare tests are typically used to quantify and assess the progression of cataracts. These devices are also useful in determining the extent of glare following LASIK procedures. Glare assessment may soon become a regular part of eye exams for people over 50 years of age. Individuals with high glare should be instructed to be extra cautious while driving at night. The importance of glare testing continues to become more evident, and the devices used to accurately assess glare continue to improve. Here are a few examples of these devices:
