The Specificity of Colored Lenses as Visual Aids in Retinal Disease.
Gawande, A.; And Others
Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v86 n6 p255-57 Jun 1992
This study of the effects of lenses of different colors on the visual abilities and comfort of 20 patients with retinal disease found that, in home trials, the critical issue was density more than color. Office tests of visual acuity and contrast sensitivity with colored lenses did not predict subjective benefit. (Author/JDD)
