Clinical Spatial Contrast Sensitivity Measurement

Key Points

To measure spatial contrast sensitivity in normal subjects and examine the impact of artificial central scotoma and temporal factors.
Measured spatial contrast sensitivity in normal subjects
Introduced an artificial central scotoma
Varying temporal transients during grating presentation
Predominantly high spatial frequency loss with minimized temporal transients
Additional low spatial frequency change with accentuated temporal transients

Abstract

ABSTRACT Measurement of spatial contrast sensitivity in normal subjects showed that the change produced by an artificial central scotoma depended on temporal factors associated with grating presentation. Minimizing temporal transients produced a predominantly high spatial frequency loss. Accentuating temporal transients produced an additional low spatial frequency change in sensitivity.
