| Description | Designed by DG Pelli, JG Robson and A J Wilkins, because they see contrast sensitivity as a realistic assessment of how well the patient sees large faint objects. The chart follows the luminance, font, and letter spacing recommendations of the | Designed by: Dr. August Colenbrander Conventional, high-contrast letter chart acuity captures only one aspect of visual performance. Low contrast acuity is equally important for activities of daily living, since most everyday objects have less than | 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
| This contrast sensitivity flip book includes a series of seven contrast levels for accurate and precise vision testing. This levels decrease throughout the test beginning with acuity, 25%, 10%, 5%, 2.5%, 1.25% and ending with .06%. The use of several | 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 |
