| Description | Uses - Establishing baseline contrast sensitivity prior to and after an intervention(such as cataract extraction, LASIK, or other refractive surgery)
- Identifying functional losses in low contrast perception (often associated with
| Designed as a simple screen test. The usual question for a reading test is: "What is the smallest (black) line you can read?" On the contrast card one adds the question "What is the smallest (grey) line you can read?" The difference between the two | Patti Stripe paddles are highly useful for testing the contrast sensitivity of children, infants, and those with mental disabilities. The contrast sensitivity is tested by placing the gray paddle in front and the grated paddle behind and sliding it | Each line on the Rabin Contrast Sensitivity Test is a lower contrast than the one before it, using Log CS steps. This progression in contrasts helps to identify the patient's contrast sensitivity. Furthermore, the test helps to detect subtle effects | This flip book is great for vision studies and research world wide. The Tumbling "E" vision chart uses only one optotype for testing. Patients not familiar with the Roman alphabet simply have to gesture or sign which direction they see the "E" facing |
