  3. Sloan letters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloan_letters

    Sloan letters, designed by Louise Sloan in 1959, are a set of optotypes used to test visual acuity generally used in Snellen charts and logMAR charts. This set of optotypes consists of ten specially formed "letters", C , D , H , K , N , O , R , S , V , and Z . [ 1 ]

  4. Eye chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_chart

    An example of the Landolt C eye chart (also known as the Japanese eye chart). Numerous types of eye charts exist and are used in various situations. For example, the Snellen chart is designed for use at 6 meters or 20 feet, and is thus appropriate for testing distance vision, while the ETDRS chart is designed for use at 4 meters. [16]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LogMAR_chart

    The chart was designed by Ian Bailey [5] and Jan E. Lovie-Kitchin at the National Vision Research Institute of Australia. [1] [3] They described their motivation for designing the LogMAR chart as follows: "We have designed a series of near vision charts in which the typeface, size progression, size range, number of words per row and spacings were chosen in an endeavour to achieve a ...

    The visual acuity is assigned in the form of a fraction. Visual acuity is recorded as "20/20" (or another fraction like 20/40) when all optotypes (letters or symbols) on a specific line of the eye chart are correctly identified. When an individual correctly identifies additional 2 letters in the next 20/30 lines, then they will be assigned 20/40+2.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wratten_number

    Wratten numbers are a labeling system for optical filters, usually for photographic use comprising a number sometimes followed by a letter. The number denotes the color of the filter and its spectral characteristics, and these numbers can be grouped into broad categories, but the numbering system is arbitrary within a group and does not encode ...

  8. Negative relative accommodation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_relative...

    After the patient's distance correction is established, the patient is instructed to view small letters on a card 40 cm from the eyes. The examiner adds convex lenses in +0.25 increments until the patient first reports that they become blurry. [2] The total value of the lenses added to reach this point is the NRA value.

  9. Duochrome test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duochrome_test

    The patient is asked to compare the clarity of the letters on the green and the red side. If the letters of the green side are clearer +0.25 D sphere is added and if the letters on the red side are clearer -0.25 D sphere is added. With optimal spherical correction, the letters on the red and green halves of the chart appear equally clear.
