“…Factors such as lighting needs during daily activities (ADL) in the home are evaluated (Dahlin Ivanoff et al, 2000). In cases where the existing lighting is deemed insufficient the lighting is adjusted or adapted in the kitchen, hall and bathroom according to the requirements and diagnosis of the patient (Lindner et al, 2001). The subjects have also undergone an examination by an experienced ophthalmologist and have been tested in a light-box to determine their required lighting level (Cornelissen et al, 1995;Fosse et al, 2001).…”

Background:As light-emitting diodes become more common as the light source for low vision aids, the effect of illumination colour temperature on magnifier reading performance was investigated. Methods: Reading ability (maximum reading speed, critical print size, threshold near visual acuity) using Radner charts and subjective preference was assessed for 107 participants with visual impairment using three stand magnifiers with light emitting diode illumination colour temperatures of 2,700 K, 4,500 K and 6,000 K. The results were compared with distance visual acuity, prescribed magnification, age and the primary cause of visual impairment. Results: Reading speed, critical print size and near visual acuity were unaffected by illumination colour temperature (p > 0.05). Reading metrics decreased with worsening acuity and higher levels of prescribed magnification but acuity was unaffected by age. Each colour temperature was preferred and disliked by a similar number of patients and was unrelated to distance visual acuity, prescribed magnification and age (p > 0.05). Patients had better near acuity (p = 0.002), critical print size (p = 0.034) and maximum reading speed (p < 0.001), and the improvement in near from distance acuity was greater (p = 0.004) with their preferred rather than least-liked colour temperature illumination. Conclusion: A range of colour temperature illuminations should be offered to all visually impaired individuals prescribed with an optical magnifier for near tasks to optimise subjective and objective benefits.

Abstract: Domestic reading places revealed considerable deficits concerning the illumination. Most visually impaired people do not realize this problem. Ophthalmologists, opticians, low-vision-, orientation- and mobility-trainers are recommended for rehabilitation.
