Visual defects in subjects with Down’s syndrome
1995
Because the incidence of other visual defects is much higher in cases of Down’s syndrome than in individuals with other forms of retardation (Gardiner, 1967; Aitchison et al., 1990), we tested the color vision of a population of Down’s syndrome patients, using Ishihara plates and the Davico anomaloscope. The Down’s syndrome group had a significantly higher proportion of color deficiencies than either normal controls or a matched mentally retarded population. Refractive errors were corrected with static retinoscopy, and spatial contrast sensitivity was measured with the Vistech test.
Rayleigh Equation Anomaloscope from Commercially Available LEDs
2012
Most precise classification of CVD (color vision deficits) can be provided by using anomaloscope. Today anomaloscopes are available, which can evaluate red-green (Rayleigh) and blue-green (Moreland) color defects.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5755/j01.ms.18.2.1928
Color-discrimination threshold determination using pseudoisochromatic test plates
2014
We produced a set of pseudoisochromatic plates for determining individual color-difference thresholds to assess test performance and test properties, and analyzed the results. We report a high test validity and classification ability for the deficiency type and severity level [comparable to that of the fourth edition of the Hardy–Rand–Rittler (HRR) test]. We discuss changes of the acceptable chromatic shifts from the protan and deutan confusion lines along the CIE xy diagram, and the high correlation of individual color-difference thresholds and the red–green discrimination index. Color vision was tested using an Oculus HMC anomaloscope, a Farnsworth D15, and an HRR test on 273 schoolchildr…
Vision evaluation in people with Down's syndrome.
1994
We tested the colour vision of 72 people with Down's syndrome using the Ishihara test and an anomaloscope. We found that 13 of the subjects, 6 males and 7 females, had defective colour vision according to Pickford's classification. In monocular vision 10 eyes were protan (five simple, three extreme and two deviant), one eye was simple deuteranomalous and the remaining eyes were normal: in binocular vision four of the subjects were protan (two simple and two deviant), two subjects were deutan (one simple and one deviant) and the rest were normal. Many of our subjects had lens opacities, strabismus, nystagmus, hypermetropia, high myopia and astigmatism, confirming literature reports. The cont…
The stability of color discrimination threshold determined using pseudoisochromatic test plates
2014
Congenital red-green color vision deficiency is one of the most common genetic disorders. A previously printed set of pseudoisochromatic plates (KAMS test, 2012) was created for individual discrimination threshold determination in case of mild congenital red-green color vision deficiency using neutral colors (colors confused with gray). The diagnostics of color blind subjects was performed with Richmond HRR (4th edition, 2002) test, Oculus HMC anomaloscope, and further the examination was made using the KAMS test. 4 male subjects aged 20 to 24 years old participated in the study: all of them were diagnosed with deuteranomalia. Due to the design of the plates, the threshold of every subject …
