COL-AEGLIA Institute for Occupational Vision

Measure visual acuity (VA) and functional contrast sensitivity (FCS) with standard protocols for mesopic and photopic lighting conditions. Acuity-Plus also supports assessment of ‘Visual Crowding.’

The Acuity-Plus test offers optimised tests of Visual Acuity and Functional Contrast Sensitivity, a measure of contrast sensitivity that is easy to use and is relevant in occupational environments.

Standard protocols are defined for testing both photopic and mesopic vision. They are designed to discover if an applicant has normal, age-corrected vision.

Applications

The parameters selected for the standard protocols are ideal for use in:

  • Clinical applications when the aim is to establish whether the subject’s performance is within normal, age-corrected limits. This is of interest since performance outside the upper normal limit can be indicative of early stage disease.
  • Certification work in occupational environments when the need is to ensure the applicant’s visual performance fulfils minimum requirements.
  • Clinical trials when the requirement is to monitor changes in visual performance over time.

Flexibility when you need it

The standard protocols employed in the Acuity-Plus test are not always appropriate for work with unusual patients or for research studies. The ‘User-defined’ protocols were designed for these cases and allow the experimenter to alter both stimulus and/or measurement parameters, as required.
