| Abstract: | Determination of visual acuity by means of VEP is carried out usually by the calculation of the amplitude function response from the value of pattern single element. That purpose is achieved by carrying out several tests of transient VEP performed each time with stimulation, using the pattern of different size of individual elements or changing sweep the following sizes of the pattern single element. Concentration of a patient is necessary during any examination and therefore in clinical practise the second of the listed methods is preferred because of its short duration. Correlation factor of visual acuity, determined by means of VEP and Snellen tests, differs depending on the examined group from about 0.4 to 0.9 and it is the lowest in case of ophthalmological disorders connected with optic nerve. Fixing of VEP optimal parameters when evaluating the visual acuity remains an open matter. |
