The development of a "reduced logMAR" visual acuity chart for use in routine clinical practice.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The advantages of logMAR acuity data over the Snellen fraction are well known, and yet existing logMAR charts have not been adopted into routine ophthalmic clinical use. As this may be due in part to the time required for a logMAR measurement, this study was performed to determine whether an abbreviated logMAR chart design could combine the advantages of existing charts with a c...
متن کاملA modified ETDRS visual acuity chart for European-wide use.
PURPOSE The log MAR visual acuity (VA) chart developed for use in the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) is composed of 10 Sloan letters, which are not used in the Greek, Cyrillic, and Central European alphabets. In this study we evaluate a modified ETDRS chart, the University of Crete (UoC) chart, which contains a set of letters readable by all European citizens. METHODS In t...
متن کاملSCIENTIFIC REPORT Development of a clinically feasible logMAR alternative to the Snellen chart: performance of the ‘‘compact reduced logMAR’’ visual acuity chart in amblyopic children
Background/aim: The ‘‘compact reduced logMAR’’ (cRLM) chart is being developed as a logMAR alternative to the Snellen chart. It is closer spaced and has fewer letters per line than conventional logMAR charts. Information regarding the performance of such a chart in amblyopes and children is therefore required. This study aimed to investigate the performance of the cRLM chart in amblyopic childr...

متن کاملChart for visual acuity screening.
SIR, -I read with great interest the paper by Wong and Kaye on a suggested chart for visual acuity screening.' However, I was surprised to find that they recommended widespread clinical use of this chart without any clinical data to confirm its suitability. The statistical argument they use is compelling, but surely a comparison with other methods of acuity testing should be undertaken to confi...
