It is possible to enter CST in two ways: from ‘Other tests’ and pressing ‘CNT’ button. For
more information on CST, please refer to chapter 5.9 Contrast Sensitivity Test

5.5.5. 100 HUE Test

The 100-Hue Test is widely used in industries where colour decisions are critical. In a
quick, precise and easy way the test determines colour vision abnormalities and checks
patient’s ability to make color discrimination. The test can also be used to determine eye
diseases, diabetes, Parkinson's disease and the effects of various pharmaceuticals on
colour vision.

How it Works:

WARNING
To do this test it is necessary to have USB mouse ( not
included ) and plug it into USB port 1 or 2.

The patient is presented with 4 sets of colour dots (one at a time). In each set there are 21
colour dots in the centre of the screen and 2 pilot colour dots at either end of the row of
‘holes’ formed on the edge of the screen (see Pic. 16. 100 HUE Test)

52
Operation Manual
 Pic. 15. 100 HUE Test

The patient is asked to arrange the dots so that the colours/hues go smoothly from the first
pilot colour dot to the last (see Pic. 17. 100 HUE Test ). There is a predetermined
sequence for each set. The closer the patient is to the correct sequence, the better his/her
colour discrimination.
In order to arrange the dots the patient has to drag each dot from the centre of the screen
(using a computer mouse) and drop it in an appropriate ‘hole’ on the edge of the screen.
When all the dots in one set have been fitted, a message ‘Click here or Press OK for next
part’ appears at the bottom of the screen.

Pic. 16.100 HUE Test

53
Operation Manual
In this way the patient goes through 4 sets of colour dots. When the fourth set has been
arranged, a message ‘Click here or Press OK to finish’ appears at the bottom of the
screen.

When the whole test has been completed, a diagram with the results is generated.

5.5.11. Hearing and Speaking Impaired Tests

The Chart Panel allows for communicating with hearing and speaking impaired patients
not only during a regular examination, but also when they are being refracted. This mode
is designed to enable giving instructions and asking questions of deaf patients. It also
allows a proper examination of mute patients.
By displaying green and blue bars at the top and bottom of the display, the Smart Chart
makes it a simple task to deliver questions and instructions to the patient. The meanings of
these bars can be adapted by each practitioner, according to their needs and the level of
patients’ disability. Below, we present one way of asking questions and giving
instructions. However, if it does not fit your style of examination, change and modify it to
make it more useful for you. We also suggest you write down your instructions and
present them to the patient before conducting any tests.

Sample instructions for hearing and speaking impaired patients:

I. Instructions for patients being presented with: Sloan Letters, Numbers and
Standard Pictures:

• When two bars, blue at the top and green at the bottom of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• After you have seen both choices, you should decide which one seems clearer
and better by pointing with your hand in the direction of the bar which represents
the better choice (up or down). It may happen that neither choice seems perfectly
clear. That is OK, simply choose which one seems better.
• If neither choice seems better than the other, indicate to both directions.
• The rest of the test will be conducted in this way.

With patients able to speak: When the optotype is presented,

NOTE ! the examiner is asking you to read it (Letters and Numbers)
or name it (Pictures).

II. Instructions for patients being presented with: HOTV test:

• When two bars, blue at the top and green at the bottom of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• If you recognize choice one, you are asked to point to an appropriate letter from
the chart received from the doctor.
• If you do not recognize choice one, point with your right hand to the side.

Professional charts are available from many distributors of

visual acuity equipment. The chart can be simply a handout
with big letters HOTV printed on it.
NOTE !

The examiners are free to apply to HOTV test the same

procedure as with Letters, Numbers and Pictures, but
matching technique seems to provide more precise answers.

62
Operation Manual
 To obtain more reliable results, matching technique can be
applied also to Pictures and Numbers, as there are not many
optotypes to choose from.

• If you recognize choice two, you are asked to point to an appropriate letter from
the chart received from the doctor.
• If you do not recognize choice two, point with your right hand to the side.
• The rest of the test will be conducted in this way.

III. Instructions for patients being presented with: Landolt Rings, Snellen E or
Hands:

• When two bars, blue at the top and green at the bottom of the display are
presented, the examiner is indicating to you that you are going to see two new
choices.
• You are asked to point in the direction to which it is ‘open’ (9 directions in case
of Landolt Rings, 4 directions in Snellen E, 4 directions in ‘Hands’).

e.g. if you see , point to the right.

• You are asked to point in the direction to which it is ‘open’ (9 directions in case
of Landolt Rings, 4 directions in Snellen E, 4 directions in ‘Hands’.
• The rest of the test will be conducted in this way.

Operation Manual
5.5.16.2 SIRDS – Single Image Random Dot Stereograms

Pic. 22. SIRDS Image

Single Image Random Dot Stereograms (SIRDS, sometimes called Autostereograms)

allow the viewer to perceive three dimensional information using one image.
Autostereograms represent one of the latest approaches to creating the illusion of three
dimensions.

How to view Autostereograms ?

Most Stereogram pictures are usually generated so that if you look at (converge your eyes
on) a position twice as far away as the picture, and focus on the picture, generally after a
few minutes you see a surprising 3D image.
Most people find this extremely difficult for the first time. You have to focus on a point
which is different from where you are looking. This is known as "de-coupling" your
vision process. Instinctively people focus at the same point they are looking at, and this is
the main obstacle in seeing images of this type.
There are many ways to teach this de-coupling to either yourself or to others, including (in
almost no particular order):

NOTE !
It is generally easier to see Stereograms under bright
light because your eye relies less on focus under harsh
conditions. Another point, to see stereo images, you need
to have "passable" use of both eyes. If you wear glasses
try with and without them on. Some short-sighted people
can see them easier without their glasses on ( if they get
closer to the picture ).
66
Operation Manual
METHOD 1 - The pull-back

Hold the picture (or move your face) so your nose is touching the picture. Most people
can not possibly focus with something this close to their eyes, and they will be content
with their inability to focus. With the picture up close, pretend that you are looking
straight ahead, right through it. Now slowly pull the picture (or your face) away while
keeping your eyes pointed straight ahead. If you do this slow enough, an image usually
appears when the picture is at the correct distance.

METHOD 2 - The reflection

As mentioned above, with a reflective surface it is sometimes a lot easier to converge your
eyes in the correct position. You simply focus on your nose or some central reflection in
the picture, and wait until you focus on the image.

METHOD 3 - The wall, or the finger

Hold the picture so that it is half between you and a wall. Look over the top of the picture
towards the wall, and focus on something such as a picture hook or mark. While keeping
this "gaze" either slowly lift the picture or lower your eyes while keeping them converged
on the wall.
A similar approach (but for cross-eyed viewing) is to stand arm's length away from the
picture and put your finger on the picture. While slowly pulling your finger towards your
face, keep looking at your finger, you will notice the picture becoming blurry, and at an
intermediate position you will see the 3D image.

METHOD 4 - The see-through

If it is possible, photocopy the picture onto a transparency. Then focus through the
transparency onto something twice as far away. This is similar to the above method except
now you don't need to change the position of your gaze.

You can't see anything, what now ??

If you don't manage to see the amazing pictures hidden inside the autostereograms
immediately, don't let it get you down. Your brain needs time to switch between
'NORMAL' vision to that of stereoscopic vision. Try not to force your eyes when
focusing.

5.9. Contrast Sensitivity Test

5.9.1. What is Contrast Sensitivity?

Contrast sensitivity is the visual ability to see objects that are not outlined clearly or that
do not stand out from their background. A person with low contrast sensitivity can have
such vision difficulties as:

• Difficulties with seeing traffic lights or cars at night

• Experiencing tired eyes while watching television

• Not seeing spots on clothes or dishes

• Not seeing whether a flame is burning on a stove

• Needing very bright light to read

5.9.2. Why is Contrast Sensitivity Testing so important?

A lot of people think the popular 20/20 letter chart is the best way to test everyday vision.
Most letter charts, however, only measure a patient's ability to recognize black letters of
different size on a white background, which is a high contrast situation. But life is also
full of low contrast situations. People who have low contrast sensitivity might be able to
read the small letters on a visual acuity chart but can still have difficulties recognizing
objects at night or in a dark room. Unlike the letter charts, which measure the ability to
see objects (or letters) of different sizes, a contrast sensitivity test measures two variables,
size and contrast. The ability to detect objects of different sizes at lower contrasts is
expressed as a contrast sensitivity function (CSF). The test determines the person’s
contrast detection threshold, the lowest contrast at which a pattern can be seen.

Only standard letter tests combined with contrast sensitivity tests can provide the opticians
with a complex knowledge about their patient’s visual condition. What is more, Contrast
Sensitivity Test can detect several diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma, amblyopia (also
known as ‘lazy eye’), AIDS, Alzheimer’s, macular degeneration or diabetes.

69
Operation Manual
5.9.3. How Contrast Sensitivity Test works?

Contrast sensitivity test (CST) shows circles (one at a time) containing sinusoidal gratings
of 5 spatial frequencies with 8 contrast sensitivity levels each. To make the test more
reliable, the orientation of the gratings (vertical, horizontal, inclined 15 degrees
clockwise, or inclined 15 degrees counter clockwise) is chosen at random. The test
consists of two parts:

• vertical
• horizontal

WARNING
It is important that the practitioner marks the exact answer
of the patient, even if it is wrong. Only then the result of the
test is reliable.

VERTICAL PART:

1. Press ‘CNT’ button to enter the test. The first circle is displayed. The patient has
to recognize the direction of the top of each grating and name it: left (picture
24a), vertical (picture 24b), right (picture 24c).
2. Press ‘Right Arrow’ if the patient’s answer is ‘right’.
3. Press ‘Left Arrow’ if the patient’s answer is ‘left’.
4. Press ‘Up Arrow’ or ‘Down Arrow’ if the patient’s answer is ‘vertical’.
5. Press ‘OK’ button if the patient’s answer is ‘don’t know’.

There is a beep signal after each answer. Continue this procedure throughout the
test. The information about the present contrast sensitivity and spatial frequency
is displayed in the right-bottom corner.

70
Operation Manual
 Pic. 24a Left gratings, Pic. 24b Vertical gratings, Pic. 24c Right gratings.

The test starts at the lowest spatial frequency and goes through 8 levels of contrast
sensitivity. Then the test proceeds to higher spatial frequencies.

Once the highest contrast sensitivity that the patient is able to identify is determined at
each spatial frequency, the test proceeds to the remaining stimuli. When the vertical part
of the test ends this info will appear:

End of first part of test

5.9.5. Technical Data

1. In defining the contrast of sinusoidal gratings, the luminance of reference is the

mean luminance of the peak waves. Therefore, modifications to the contrast are
obtained by concurrently varying the luminance of the light and dark bands as to
keep the mean luminance unvaried.
