Effects of Task on Reading Performance Estimates
Frontiers in Psychology, 2020 Reading is a primary problem for low vision patients and a common functional endpoint for eye disease. However, there is limited agreement on reading assessment methods for clinical outcomes.

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.

Macular rotation and reading acuity.
JAPANESE ORTHOPTIC JOURNAL, 2001 近年、黄斑変性症に対して中心窩移動術が行われており、術後の視力についての報告も増えてきた。日常生活において読書能力は重要であるが、黄斑変性症の患者の中には、視力と読書能力が一致しない者が少なくない。今回我々は、1999年2月から14か月の間に当科にて中心窩移動術を受け、術前後に検査が可能であった31例を対象に、術前および術後4か月以降(平均7.9月)に遠見視力、近見視力、MNREAD-Jによる臨界文字サイズと読書視力を測定し、比較検討を行ったので報告する。結果、術前後の遠見視力・近見視力ともに有意な変化はなく、臨界文字サイズと読書視力は改善する傾向にあった。また、術前後の遠見・近見視力の変化に対して読書能力の変化を検討したところ、遠見視力の変化(平均-0.03±0.44)に対して臨界文字サイズの変化(

The right visual field advantage and the optimal viewing position effect: On the relation between foveal and parafoveal word recognition [PDF]
, 1996 Recent developments on the optimal viewing position (OVP) effect suggest that it may be caused by the same factors that underlie the right visual field advantage in word recognition.

Optometry and Vision Science, 2021 SIGNIFICANCE The development of visual acuity has often been looked upon as a function of age. This study considers whether cognition might also be a predictor of acuity in children. The results indicate that cognition is a predictor of acuity and therefore should play a role in vision evaluations and developmental research.
