Der Teller-Acuity-Card-Test: Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der klinischen Anwendung

Abstract: The Teller Acuity Card test was used to examine 49 normal children, 77 with strabismus, 9 with anisometropia and 19 with various organic ocular diseases. The vision of some of these children was also tested with the Landolt C and fixation preference tests. A comparison of the three tests showed that strabismic amblyopia is not reliably detected with the Teller Acuity Cards. On the other hand, this test appears to be a good one for detecting loss of acuity due to ocular diseases.

“…Grating acuity and VA results from some of our participants show that the measured VA comes close to this theoretical limit; one participant achieved a grating acuity of 3.3 cycles per degree, corresponding to 20/200. Optotype and grating acuity, however, should not be directly compared (Katz & Sireteanu, 1989), because grating acuity relies on cues derived from angles of lines across a large visual field (even when lines are interrupted), whereas optotype VA depends on the recognition of single optotype features in a very small visual field. The best Landolt C-rings acuity of the same participant was 20/546.…”

“…It has been shown by different authors [14,15,23] that the objective assessment of visual acuity, for example by preferential looking, is not suitable for sufficient amblyopia screening. Therefore, screening should concentrate on the detection of amblyogenic factors.…”

“…Unter pathologischen Bedingungen wird ein Muster aus gleich dicken schwarzen und weißen Linien im Allgemeinen leichter aufgelöst als ein Landolt-Ring derselben Liniendicke oder Lü-ckengröße [19]. Dieser Unterschied ist bei Schielamblyopie besonders deutlich [12,15,16]. Mit dem Teller-Acuity-Card-Test wurde gezeigt, dass das Verhältnis zwischen dem Landolt-RingVisus und der Gittersehschärfe 1:10 erreichen kann [15,16].…”
