15、 BS EN ISO 8596:2009ISO 8596:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved iiiForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technic

16、al committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely wi

17、th the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft Inte

18、rnational Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document ma

19、y be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 8596 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments. This second edition cancels and replaces the first

20、edition (ISO 8596:1994), which has undergone minor revision to take into account the withdrawal without replacement of ISO 8597:1994, Optics and optical instruments Visual acuity testing Method of correlating optotypes.

21、O 2009 All rights reserved 1Ophthalmic optics Visual acuity testing Standard optotype and its presentation 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a range of Landolt ring optotypes and describes a method for measuring distance visual acuity under daylight conditions for the purposes of certifi

22、cation or licensing. It is neither intended as a standard for clinical measurements nor for the certification of blindness or partial sight. For the purposes of measuring visual acuity, the standard optotype should be used. For clinical use, see the recommendation prepared by the Visual Functions Co

23、mmittee of the International Council of Ophthalmology1. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (inclu

24、ding any amendments) applies. ISO 3:1973, Preferred numbers Series of preferred numbers 3 Standard optotype The standard optotype shall be the Landolt ring as detailed in Table 1 and as shown in Figure 1. The visual acuity grade 1 shall be represented by a Landolt ring whose outer diameter, d, subte

25、nds an angle of 5 and whose width, as well as the gap in its continuity, subtends an angle of 1 at the designated viewing distance. The Landolt ring shall be capable of being presented in eight different positions (see 6.2). 4 Visual acuity grades and standard optotype grades The visual acuity grade

26、s shall be as given in Table 1 and shall be expressed as the reciprocal of the gap width measured in minutes of arc. The acuity values for the size of the optotype shall be graduated logarithmically. The quotient of the size of the optotype and that of the next smaller one shall be: 1010 1,258 9= (s

27、eries of preferred numbers R10 from ISO 3:1973). Optotypes of acuity grades 0,05, 0,06, 0,08 and 2,0 may be omitted if necessary. Addition of further acuity grades is permitted.

31、een standard optotypes The field shall extend at least 0,5 in all directions from the contour of the optotypes to the border of the test field. If more than one standard optotype is used in the same test area, the spacings given in Table 2 shall apply. If more than one acuity grade is used on the te

32、st area, the spacing for the largest optotype shall apply. Table 2 applies to both horizontal and vertical spacing. The background to the optotypes shall appear uniformly bright and without any variation of colour or texture which could indicate the orientation of the symbols. If the different orien

33、tations are achieved by rotation of the optotypes, this rotary movement shall not be observed by the subject. 6 Presentation of the standard optotype 6.1 Quality of presentation The standard optotype as presented shall appear with sharply defined contours to an observer with a visual acuity of at le

34、ast 1,0 at an observation distance of 1/3 of the distance at which the test types are designed to be used. Test types presented in instruments shall be observed with a magnification of 3. The optotypes in a series shall not differ noticeably in contrast and contour. 6.2 Positions of the optotype The

35、 optotype shall be presented in at least the number of different positions per acuity grade as shown in Table 1. In 50 % of these positions, the gap shall be either vertical or horizontal but, in the case when there is an odd number of presentations, this value shall be rounded to the next larger in

36、teger. The sequence of presentations shall be as diversified as possible and shall be randomly ordered. If the standard optotype is presented singly, this fact shall be specifically mentioned in the test report. 6.3 Viewing distance for distance visual acuity testing The test shall be performed with

37、 a minimum viewing distance of 4 m between the entrance pupil of the subject and the optotype. 6.4 Criteria for determination and assignment of visual acuity grade When testing for visual acuity, the performance level at which the presentation of optotypes shall be terminated is dependent upon the n

38、umber of optotypes used for each size. For a “Pass” assessment: at least three shall be called correctly if the total number of optotypes used is five; at least four shall be called correctly if the total number of optotypes used is six or seven; at least five shall be called correctly if the total

39、number of optotypes used is eight or nine; at least six shall be called correctly if the total number of optotypes used is ten. NOTE Preferred numbers of presentation are five, eight or ten. In each case, the minimum called correctly represents approximately 60 % of the total. The test shall be term

40、inated at the first grade at which the number called correctly falls below the “Pass” level. The visual acuity shall be assigned, by reference to Table 1, as one grade lower than the grade at which the test is terminated. BS EN ISO 8596:2009ISO 8596:2009(E) 4 ISO 2009 All rights reserved7 Luminance

41、The luminance of the test area shall be as given in Table 3 and shall apply to all methods of presentation. The luminance of the standard optotype shall be not more than 15 % of that of the test area, taking into account the room illumination. The surrounding field (test room) shall be darker than t

42、he test area. However, within an area of 10 diameter, the luminance of the surrounding field shall be not less than 1/10 nor more than 1/4 of the luminance of the test area. There shall be no direct or indirect glare source (e.g. light source, reflected image of a light source, glossy or very bright

43、 matt surface) within the field of view. White light within a colour temperature range of 2 500 K to 7 000 K shall be used. NOTE In measuring the visual acuity, the luminance and contrast conditions should be such that consistent results can be expected for a normal eye. Table 3 Luminance General su
