Vision acuity was assessed by visual evoked potentials (VEP) in response to low-frequency chess pattern reversion in 31 full-term healthy babies aged 6 to 28 weeks. The mean vision acuity of babies aged 6 to 9 weeks was 0.5 +/- 0.01, of those aged 16 to 18 weeks 0.1 +/- 0.01; in babies aged 24 to 26 weeks vision acuity was at least 0.14, but still lower than in normal-sighted adults. The authors emphasize the advantages of low-frequency chess pattern reversion in assessment of vision acuity from VEP in babies.

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
