Shortened Measurement Time of Functional Visual Acuity for Screening Visual Function

Table 1

Comparison of the parameters of the functional visual acuity (FVA) test between the standard test and the short-version test (n = 28).

ParametersStandard method (mean ± standard deviation)Short-version method (mean ± standard deviation) value

Distance-corrected FVA (logMAR)−0.147 ± 0.030−0.146 ± 0.0350.931
Maximal visual acuity (logMAR)−0.174 ± 0.022−0.176 ± 0.0190.785
Minimal visual acuity (logMAR)−0.048 ± 0.062−0.079 ± 0.0690.036
Visual maintenance ratio0.99 ± 0.020.98 ± 0.020.508
Average response time (seconds)1.22 ± 0.121.22 ± 0.120.927

Wilcoxon signed-rank test; logMAR = logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution.
