چکیده
The Rosenbaum card is the most widely used handheld card for measuring near visual acuity. It was developed by Dr. J.

Millions of copies of the Rosenbaum card have been distributed free by drug companies or sold by medical supply firms. Most versions of the Rosenbaum card are inaccurate because the numbers are not scaled properly to the Snellen system.
