| 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
| 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 | 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 |
