Contrast Sensitivity Function as a Diagnostic Tool in Low Vision

Key Points

• This report aims to evaluate the contrast sensitivity function as a diagnostic measure for visual loss.
• Descriptive case report of a patient with visual loss
• Assessment using contrast sensitivity function, retinometer, and visometer
• Comparison of visual loss over one year
• Visual loss was identified as lenticular rather than retinal
• Findings suggest a significant role for the contrast sensitivity function in diagnosing low vision conditions
