The determination of the central static visual acuity, presentation of a modified Landolt C chart. 1991

G H Jonkers, and J Burger

The circumstances which can influence the determination of the static central visual acuity are enumerated. The TNO Landolt C chart can be improved. A modified Landolt C letter chart is introduced on which the optotype is presented in 8 different positions, in vertical rows of ten per visual step above visual acuity 0.3.

D014787	Vision Tests	A series of tests used to assess various functions of the eyes.	Test, Vision,Tests, Vision,Vision Test
D014792	Visual Acuity	Clarity or sharpness of OCULAR VISION or the ability of the eye to see fine details. Visual acuity depends on the functions of RETINA, neuronal transmission, and the interpretative ability of the brain. Normal visual acuity is expressed as 20/20 indicating that one can see at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. Visual acuity can also be influenced by brightness, color, and contrast.	Acuities, Visual,Acuity, Visual,Visual Acuities
