| Description | 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 | 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
| 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 | Contrast sensitivity vision test includes a legend card for easier recordings. Also, eye test features five levels of contrast for more precise diagnosis of contrast vision. Chart also uses Sloan optotypes that are highly reliable and repeatable. |
