Near visual function measured with a novel tablet application in patients with astigmatism
Clinical and Experimental Optometry, EarlyView., 2020 Clinical relevance While the clinical focus of performance metrics is traditionally based on visual acuity, research from the field of visual impairment has demonstrated that metrics such as reading speed and critical print size correlate much more strongly with subjective patient reported outcomes and assessed ability in real‐world tasks.
