Development and validation of the Greek version of the MNREAD acuity chart [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Optometry, 2013
The aim of this study was to develop MNREAD acuity charts in the Greek language (MNREAD-GR) and establish their repeatability in a normal-sighted population.One hundred and eighty Greek sentences were constructed based on the design principles of the Minnesota Low Vision Reading Test.

Comprehensive Rehabilitation for Autosomal Dominant Retinitis Pigmentosa: A Case Report. [PDF]

open access: yesCase Rep Ophthalmol Med
A 62‐year‐old female with retinitis pigmentosa presented for a low vision rehabilitation evaluation. An updated spectacle prescription, filters, and task lighting were beneficial, but the patient was left with outstanding needs. She noted that she had lost her independence and felt trapped within her own home with nobody around who could fully ...

Reading performance in patients with retinitis pigmentosa: a study using the MNREAD charts.

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2004
To evaluate the relationship between reading performance and severity of disease in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), assessed with routine clinical psychophysical visual tests.Seventy-six consecutive patients with RP (145 eyes), with reading acuity of at least 1.6 logMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) in at least one eye, were ...

New Italian version of the Wilkins Rate of Reading Test: Materials for repeated‐measure designs in optometry and neuropsychological research

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 629-639, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Purpose To develop a series of equivalent passages of text in Italian, according to the principles of the Wilkins Rate of Reading Test (WRRT), suitable for both clinical examination and scientific research when equivalent stimuli are needed to compare performance in repeated‐measure designs. Method Fifteen high‐frequency Italian words (matched

Binocular visual function and fixational control in patients with macular disease: A review

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 258-271, March 2022., 2022
Abstract For normally sighted observers, the centre of the macula—the fovea—provides the sharpest vision and serves as the reference point for the oculomotor system. Typically, healthy observers have precise oculomotor control and binocular visual performance that is superior to monocular performance.

The impact of spectacle lenses for myopia control on visual functions

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 1320-1331, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Purpose Spectacle lenses containing multiple small peripheral elements have been developed for myopia control in children. It is important that their effect on vision be quantified by (i) fixation through the peripheral portion, thereby using foveal vision and (ii) by fixation through the central portion and presentation of peripheral targets.

Simulating Visibility and Reading Performance in Low Vision

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
PurposeLow vision reduces text visibility and causes difficulties in reading. A valid low-vision simulation could be used to evaluate the accessibility of digital text for readers with low vision.

Cognitive decline in older adults: What can we learn from optical coherence tomography (OCT)‐based retinal vascular imaging?

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 2524-2535, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Introduction Accumulated vascular damage contributes to the onset and progression of vascular dementia and possibly to Alzheimer's disease. Here we evaluate the feasibility and utility of using retinal imaging of microvascular markers to identify older adults at risk of cognitive disease.

Clinical Outcomes of Combined Implantation of an Extended Depth of Focus IOL and a Trifocal IOL in a Korean Population

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Purpose. To evaluate monocular and binocular visual performance and patient‐reported outcomes following combined implantation of a diffractive extended depth of focus (EDoF) IOL (Carl Zeiss AT LARA 829MP) and a diffractive trifocal IOL (Carl Zeiss AT LISA tri 839MP). Methods.
