    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, Celia
    PURPOSE: 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 Optometry

    Variations of intraocular scattering in retinitis pigmentosa by interposing short wavelengths filters.
    (2014) Sánchez Ramos, Celia; Cedrún Sánchez, Juan Enrique; Chamorro Gutiérrez, Eva.; Bonnin Arias, Cristina Natalia; Pérez Carrasco, María Jesús
    The intraocular scattering is a distorting effect of the retinal image. In people with retinitis pigmentosa, the resolution of the retinal image is particularly important. The halometer (Software Halo v1.0 © 2008 Universidad de Granada) can assess quantitatively the intraocular scattering. In recent years it has been shown that the implementation of blue light filters improve visual perception in persons with low vision. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of blue light filters in mesopic perception of patients with retinitis pigmentosa studing the intraocular scattering
