Dynamic visual acuity (DVA) is crucial for the perception of moving objects. While traditional DVA assessment tools predominantly focus on horizontal movements, the evaluation of vertical DVA remains ...
Lighting conditions significantly influence visual acuity (VA), visual function, and quality of life. Previous research highlighted a correlation between luminance and VA but left a gap in understandi...
This study aimed to investigate the influence of both central and surrounding luminance on VA through distance VA measurements....
A dual-component lighting system was utilized, comprising a self-illuminated ETDRS chart and a skyLED system for consistent surrounding illumination. Two experimental setups were conducted: the first ...
Sixty-six participants with refractive errors between 0.0 D and -2.75 D were tested under various lighting conditions. Both uncorrected refractive error (URE) and corrected refractive error (CRE) eyes...
Paired t-tests were used to evaluate the statistical significance of differences in VA scores....
Experiment 1 demonstrated a significant increase in VA scores, with mean improvements of -0.120 LogMAR for URE eyes and -0.073 LogMAR for CRE eyes as chart luminance increased from 26 cd/m² to 153 cd/...
This study emphasizes the significant impact of both central and peripheral luminance on VA. The introduction of the skyLED lighting system underlines the importance of optimal lighting for visual per...
This study aimed to assess grating visual acuity and functional vision in children with congenital Zika syndrome....
Initial and final grating visual acuity was measured using Teller acuity cards. Cerebral vision impairment standardized tests were used to assess functional vision. Patients were referred to the early...
In this study, 10 children were included with an age range of 1-37 months. Eight patients presented with macular atrophic scars. Neuroimaging revealed microcephaly and cerebral abnormalities in all pa...
The grating visual acuity test revealed low vision in all children with congenital Zika syndrome. Functional vision evaluation revealed cerebral vision impairment characteristics in all patients, who ...
Retinoblastoma (RB) and its associated treatments can significantly impact visual acuity. However, little is known regarding other measures of vision, such as contrast sensitivity or saccades. The aim...
This cross-sectional study included children aged 5-17 years who had completed treatment for RB. Visual acuity, saccades via fixation analysis, and contrast sensitivity by Cardiff contrast sensitivity...
Eleven children were enrolled (mean age, 10.7 ± 3.9 years). Treatment included enucleation (8 children [73%]) and chemotherapy (10 [91%]). Of the 11, one participant was unable to complete testing of ...
Decreased contrast sensitivity and impaired saccades were universally observed in this cohort of RB survivors. Comprehensive visual evaluation should be considered for all RB survivors to provide opti...
We make use of expected information gain to quantify the amount of knowledge obtained from measurements in a population. In the first application, we compared the expected information gain in the Snel...
We combined data from 121 amblyopic children enrolled in two prospective open-label pilot studies and a randomized trial of a binocular digital therapeutic to identify factors associated with positive...
The purpose of this study was to develop a model that can predict the postoperative visual acuity in eyes that had undergone vitrectomy for an epiretinal membrane (ERM). The Light Gradient Boosting Ma...
The RMSEs for the predicted visual acuity of Model 1 were 0.14 ± 0.02 logMAR units at 1 month, 0.12 ± 0.03 logMAR units at 3 months, and 0.13 ± 0.04 logMAR units at 6 months. High SHAP values were obs...
Predicting the postoperative visual acuity in ERM patients is possible using the preoperative clinical data and OCT images with LightGBM. The contribution of the explanatory variables can be visualize...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is suggested as a potential tool for retinal biomarkers in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). We explored how macular exudate (ME) affects retinal structure...
Patients diagnosed with IIH and matched controls were enrolled. ME detection was done on fundus photography; swept-source OCT was used to image and measure the retinal sublayer thicknesses, including ...
195 eyes from 98 IIH patients (42 eyes had ME) and 224 eyes from 112 controls were included. IIH patients had thicker INL and ORL compared with controls (both p<0.001) while IIH eyes with ME had thick...
ME affects retinal thickness in IIH patients and is associated with more severe clinical features in IIH. OCT may provide biomarkers informative of clinical changes in IIH. Further longitudinal studie...
To relate the visual acuity changes (VA) with the cost of care and treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (AntiVEGF) therapy in patients diagnosed with exudative age-related macular de...
Observational, longitudinal, retrospective study of patients older than 50 years diagnosed with exudative AMD, with a logMAR VA between 0.6 and 0.06, in follow-up and treatment in our tertiary hospita...
AntiVEGF treatments (ranibizumab, aflibercept and both) maintained VA in patients with exudative AMD. In general, care and treatment costs were lower in the group that received both drugs....
