Contrast sensitivity vision testing: new screening technology for family physicians.
Contrast sensitivity vision testing is the new technology in visual screening. Easy to administer and quick to perform, contrast sensitivity vision testing appears to be cost-effective for use by family physicians. It is a more sensitive indicator of ocular disease than traditional Snellen acuity testing and may detect ocular pathology at an early stage when Snellen acuity is still normal.
