    Effect of a yellow filter on mesopic contrast perception and differential light sensitivity in the visual field.

    Purpose: Previous studies on the effects of yellow filters in the visual performance have been carried out, presenting discrepancies among the different investigations. Our study reports the influence of the yellow filter without residual reflections on contrast perception and differential light sensitivity (DLS) under mesopic conditions. Methods: Contrast sensitivity, low contrast visual acuity and luminance thresholds in the central visual field (30 degrees ) were measured in a group of 38 adult subjects with and without a coated yellow lens (482-nm cut-off) under mesopic conditions. Results: The contrast sensitivity mean was significantly better with the filter at low- and middle-range spatial frequencies (1.5 cycles/degree p = 0.002 and 6 cycles/degree p = 0.02). At 5% contrast, the mesopic low contrast visual acuity improved significantly (p = 0.004) when interposing the yellow filter. The increase in DLS was statistically significant [e.g. all visual fields p = 0.0003 and macular visual field (9.5 degrees ) p = 0.00001] through the yellow filter on the different established areas of the visual field (30 degrees ). Conclusions: The yellow filter without residual reflections had a positive influence on the brightness and contrast perception of healthy subjects, for which its use would be beneficial under mesopic conditions.

    Nuevo instrumento para medir la sensibilidad al contraste sin y con deslumbramiento
    (Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología, 2003) Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Puell Marín, María Cinta; Pérez Carrasco, María Jesús; Langa Moraga, Antonio; Benítez Del Castillo Sánchez, José Manuel
    OBJETIVO/MÉTODO: valorar la sensibilidad al contraste fotópica, sin y con deslumbramiento con un nuevo instrumento. Se estudiaron 78 ojos derechos de 49 adultos jóvenes y de 29 adultos entre 35 y 55 años. La sensibilidad al contraste se midió con el Contrast Glarester CGT-1000 mediante una estrategia automatizada de reconocimiento para seis frecuencias espaciales. RESULTADOS/CONCLUSIONES: Los valores de sensibilidad al contraste fueron semejantes a los obtenidos con otros test clínicos. El aumento de la edad disminuyó significativamente la sensibilidad al contraste sin y con deslumbramiento. Sin embargo, el deslumbramiento no modificó la sensibilidad al contraste fotópica.
