Medical - Medical: Instruments / Distance chart
English term or phrase: line test
If the chart is held at 16 inches (40cm) the visual acuity value is found in the margin adjacent to that line.
After binocular testing, proceed with testing each eye separately.
In screening, use two pairs of plano glasses for occlusion of the child’s eyes or a pair of symmetric glasses that can be used for covering both eyes, one at a time.
This is the least disturbing type of occluder.
For monocular testing, follow the same procedure as for binocular testing.
Older children and adults may be tested using the reverse side of the near vision card where the numbers are spaced more closely, as if in words or sentences.
The close spacing of the symbols on this test makes it a sensitive test for detection of increased crowding effect.
In children with brain damage there may be great differences between visual acuity values measured with **line test** and the more crowded tests.
Single symbol acuity may be normal or near normal.
Visual acuity measured with crowded symbols is closely equal to the smallest text size that the child/person is able to read.
It is NOT the size of the texts to be used in learning and at work because nobody likes to read at the level of threshold.
We usually read texts that are 3-10 times larger than the threshold size.

Mi è chiaro il concetto, ma non so se questo test ha un nome specifico.

Tali visite consistono nell’esame dell’
acuità visiva per lontano e per vicino preferibilmente con un ottotipo lineare, quali ad esempio le E di Albini. Per incrementare la sensibilità, la specificità e quindi l’efficacia del programma di screening, senza aumentarne sostanzialmente i costi di attuazione, è utile eseguire in concomitanza all’esame dell’acuità visiva, altri test specifici quali:
• il cover test, importante per la diagnosi di uno strabismo manifesto o latente;
• lo studio della motilità oculare e della convergenza fusionale;
• l’esame della stereopsi, mediante ad esempio il test di Lang o il Titmus stereotest.
