Acuity, crowding, reading and fixation stability [PDF]

Vision Research, 2007
People with age-related macular disease frequently experience reading difficulty that could be attributed to poor acuity, elevated crowding or unstable fixation associated with peripheral visual field dependence. We examine how the size, location, spacing and instability of retinal images affect the visibility of letters and words at different ...

Silent Reading as Determined by Age and Visual Acuity [PDF]

Journal of Research in Reading, 1997
In this study silent reading by adults ranging in age from 35 to 90 years was investigated. The texts to be read were printed in black on white paper with character sizes varying from 1–9 mm x‐height (visual angle 0.19° to 1.67°). In order to separate age effects from visual‐acuity effects, subjects with different levels of visual acuity (0.1–2.5 ...

Are individual differences in reading speed related to extrafoveal visual acuity and crowding? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Readers differ considerably in their speed of self-paced reading. One factor known to influence fixation durations in reading is the preprocessing of words in parafoveal vision.

Reading Acuity as a Predictor of Low-Vision Reading Performance

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 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 ...
