CONTRAST SENSITIVITY REGARDING THE TOXIC OPTIC NEUROPATHY
Abstract:
We studied the parameters of the visual function of the patients with alcoholic dependence syndrome. Material and method: n=32 patients with alcoholic dependence syndrome visual acuity >4/10 uc/bcva and normal Goldmann visual field, n=20 subjects control group. Subjects were tested taking into account: visual acuity-Snellen tables, colours tests–Ishihara tables, stereopsis –Lang test, contrast sensitivity test performed with MAV-l. Results: 25% of subjects do not have Stereoscopic sight. (-) and 50% of them presented only the first degree. Contrast sensitivity showed a significant reduction of all spatial frequencies in all patients. Conclusion: This test demonstrates its utility in checking the visual function from the point of view of alcohol dependence.
