1. How do I use the contrast of optotypes?
➢ See Change the contrast page 33.
2. How do I use Regan test (FSC)?
The Regan test is a sine-wave grating test. There are different levels of spatial
frequencies of wave (which represents different acuities) and contrast.
Call the test
➢ Press the button of the group with which the test is associated (1,2 or 3) untilte test
appears.
Explanation of the inforamtion bar
1/20 … 20/20 Indication of the number of the test
S: … Contrast sensibility (=1/C)
C: … Contrast (%)
D: … Distance (same distance than visual acuity test)
Orientation of the top of the waves
The orientation of the waves is always the same
