Item Development of a Method to Potentially Substitute Direct Evaluation of Mesopic Visual Acuity in Drivers(International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2021) García Rojo, Marta María; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva; Álvarez Peregrina, Cristina; Sánchez Ramos, Celia(1) Background: In mesopic lighting conditions, or under adverse environmental circumstances, visual information is reduced, which increases the risk of traffic accidents. This effect could be reduced with a precise evaluation of the visual function under mesopic conditions, but it is difficult to replicate in clinics. This study aims to develop an easy-to-adopt method to evaluate mesopic visual acuity (VA) in drivers. (2) Methods: Prospective and observational study in drivers. logMAR mesopic VA was compared with photopic VA measured under different combinations of contrast charts and filters to find the combination that responds best to mesopic conditions. (3) Results: Fifty-six drivers were examined. The best correlation was found with an 80% density filter and a Weber contrast chart of 20%. The logMAR VA for this combination was 0.01 ± 0.11, which was close to the mesopic VA values (0.01 ± 0.12). The difference between both logMAR VA was 0.00 ± 0.06 (R = 0.86; p ≤ 0.001; ICC = 0.86). (4) Conclusions: The use of 20% contrast optotypes and the interposition of an 80% filter under photopic conditions provide VA values similar to those measured under mesopic lighting conditions, making this simple system a good predictor of mesopic VA values.Item Visual Discrimination Increase by Yellow Filters in Retinitis Pigmentosa(Optometry and Vision Science, 2016) Cedrún Sánchez, Juan Enrique; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Aguirre Vilacoro, Victoria; Castro, José J.; Sánchez Ramos, CeliaPURPOSE: The objective of this study was to evaluate, by halometry and under low illumination conditions, the effects of short-wavelength light absorbance filters on visual discrimination capacity in retinitis pigmentosa patients. METHODS: This was an observational, prospective, analytic, and transversal study on 109 eyes of 57 retinitis pigmentosa patients with visual acuity better than 1.25 logMAR. Visual disturbance index (VDI) was determined using the software Halo 1.0, with and without the interposition of filters which absorb (totally or partially) short-wavelength light between 380 and 500 nm. RESULTS: A statistically significant reduction in the VDI values determined using filters which absorb short-wavelength light was observed (p < 0.0001). The established VDIs in patients with VA logMAR <0.4 were 0.30 ± 0.05 (95% CI, 0.26–0.36) for the lens alone, 0.20 ± 0.04 (95% CI, 0.16–0.24) with the filter that completely absorbs wavelengths shorter than 450 nm, and 0.24 ± 0.04 (95% CI, 0.20–0.28) with the filter that partially absorbs wavelengths shorter than 450 nm, which implies a 20 to 33% visual discrimination capacity increase. In addition, a decrease of VDI in at least one eye was observed in more than 90% of patients when using a filter. CONCLUSIONS: Short-wavelength light absorbance filters increase visual discrimination capacity under low illumination conditions in retinitis pigmentosa patients. Use of such filters constitutes a suitable method to improve visual quality related to intraocular light visual disturbances under low illumination conditions in this group of patients. © 2016 American Academy of OptometryItem Estudio de biocompatibilidad de las lentes de contacto terapéuticas y profilácticas de absorbancia selectiva de longitudes de onda corta con una solución de peróxido de hidrógeno.(Gaceta de optometría y óptica oftálmica, 2015) Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Álvarez Peregrina, Cristina; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva; Villa Collar, CésarEl objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar la biocompatibilidad de la solución de peróxido de hidrógeno Ever Clean® (Avizor S.A.) con las lentes de contacto terapéuticas y profilácticas de absorbancia selectiva de longitudes de onda corta. Para ello se realizaron estudios de citotoxicidad empleando fibroblastos humanos y siguiendo las recomendaciones de la norma ISO 10993- 5:2009. Se tomaron medidas del daño mitocondrial que se produce en las células, de la apoptosis celular, del estrés oxidativo y del daño en el ADN. Los resultados obtenidos reflejan que la solución Ever Clean® (Avizor S.A.) es biocompatible con las lentes de contacto terapéuticas y profilácticas de absorbancia selectiva de longitudes de onda corta, no produciendo reacciones de citotoxicidad en los fibroblastos conjuntivales humanos.Item Síndrome de visión del ordenador: un nuevo reto para la prevención (CVS).(Seguridad y promoción de la salud (Fundación Mapfre), 2015) Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Pérez Carrasco, María Jesús; Aguirre Vila-Coro, Victoria; García Rojo, Marta; Blanco Navarro, Carolina; Chamorro Gutiérrez, EvaEl presente estudio epidemiológico se ha realizado sobre una muestra de 314 personas clasificadas por el tiempo que dedicaban al uso de dispositivos con pantallas retroiluminadas, resultando dos grupos: los clasificados como usuarios (más de 3 horas) y como no usuarios (menos de 3 horas). Constatada la incidencia de estas prácticas en la aparición de problemas oculares incluso no reversibles, de las conclusiones del estudio se desprende la necesidad de que los especialistas sugieran estrategias de prevención, tales como cambios de iluminación, la adopción de hábitos saludables de posicionamiento frente al ordenador, el uso de lágrimas artificiales y la utilización de gafas y lentes de contacto especialmente diseñadas y tratadas para proteger los ojos.
