Association between Contrast Sensitivity and Reading with Macular Pathology [PDF]
SIGNIFICANCE Comparison between the role of spatial and temporal contrast sensitivities in the association with reading may provide insight into how visual tasks (such as reading) are related to primary optical or neural (or both) effects. More insight into primary visual factors influencing reading is important
