Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation of measured visual acuity
(VA) both static and dynamic obtained with static and dynamic measuring tests, as well
as, response time to visual stimulus and analysis of its influence on dynamic visual
acuity. The aim was to compare the results gathered for the three age groups and
analyze the possible differences.
Methods
The test groups consisted of 75 subjects between 10 and 60 years old, categorized in
three age groups. The measurements of static and dynamic visual acuity and reaction
time were conducted. The set of nine tests (five with radial magnification speed and four
simulating driving condition at 72 km/h and 130 km/h) was designed in order to measure
dynamic visual acuity and the set of two tests for reaction time measurement.
Results
Compared to static visual acuity in both tests, the results obtained with measurements
of dynamic visual acuity resulted in lower values depending on Landolt ring size and
magnification speed of animation. In average, the dynamic visual acuities in tests with
different magnification speeds were lower than static by 0.4 visual acuity units, or 31%
and the average of dynamic visual acuity after subtracting motoric component (reaction
time) was for 0.2 visual acuity worse than static or 15%. In the second test simulating
driving conditions at 72 km/h the average drop in dynamic visual acuity was 33% while
at 130 km/h average drop for younger and middle age groups was 37% and for older
group was 44% and after subtracting motor component values for 72 km/h speed
simulation average drop in visual acuity values was 23% for all three groups; for 130
km/h speed simulation younger and middle aged group average drop of visual acuity
was 20% and with older group it was 24%.
Conclusion
The tests used in this study were simple and fast and revealed significant difference
between static and dynamic visual acuity and influence of reaction time on dynamic

and training of dynamic visual and sensory response skill with drivers, sportsmen and
people with visual-motor dysfunction.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity of the iPad Aniseikonia Test for
measurement size lens-induced aniseikonia. The iPad Aniseikonia Test is a new
computer-based test designed for measuring aniseikonia in vertical direction. The iPad
Test uses red-green anaglyphs.
Methods
Aniseikonia was induced in 21 subjects by means of afocal size lenses. Resulting
aniseikonia was measured in vertical direction by the iPad Aniseikonia Test. The
measurement was performed in dark condition with appropriate correction of refractive
error. All subject were patients with normal vision with no anisometropia or other
ocular problem.
Results:
Afocal size lenses of known magnification were used to induce aniseikonia. 5
measurements were taken in each subject, ranging from zero to 7 % magnification.
When using the regression analysis, the slope of the fitted line significantly differs from
1. The average slope of regression line is 0,58.
Conclusions:
Only moderate accuracy was found for tested target size and orientation. In all cases the
iPad Aniseikonia Test underestimates the level of aniseikonia. However for gross
assessment of anisometropia in clinical practice it could be successfully used. Further
study with different target size should be addressed.
