Procedure

Response

Features for next optotype

Direction

Optotype size

Display time

Reaction time measurement

Correct/incorrect

Random direction of four: up, down, left, right

Maintain constant, 0.2 logMAR unit larger than best-corrected visual acuity

Sustained display until response

Functional visual acuity measurement

Correct; within mRT + 2SD

Decreased by 0.1 logMAR unit

mRT + 2SD

Correct; response time was longer than mRT + 2SD

Remained unchanged

mRT + 3SD

Incorrect; within the set display time

Increased by 0.1 logMAR unit

mRT + 3SD

No response; within the set display time

Increased by 0.1 logMAR unit

mRT + 3SD

  1. mRT = mean reaction time; SD = standard deviation
