Reading Acuity as a Predictor of Low-Vision Reading Performance. [PDF]

Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci, 2018
Most people with low vision experience difficulty with reading. Reading assessment can provide guidance for prescription of reading aids and strategies for reading rehabilitation. Here we investigate the effectiveness of letter acuity (LA) and reading acuity (RA) as predictors of low-vision reading performance.Low-vision subjects (n = 58), young ...
