ABCD SYM+ Optotypes

 
Home
Visual acuity testing is the most important eye test in adults and children. For amblyopia, visual acuity is used to screen, diagnose and define the disease. Optotypes are objects in a visual acuity test the subject must try to identify. A good set of optotypes- each option has an equal chance of being guessed at threshold. The ABCD SYM+ uses 4-way symmetric objects fitting in equal sized circles with adjusted width so each has the same density of black and white.
