This calculator is intended as a convenient screener for visual acuity to be used on a mobile device and should not be used as a replacement for in-office testing.Evidence for smartphone apps for Snellen visual acuity is limited, and currently no app has been found to be accurate to within at least one line of formal visual acuity testing (and further validation is required). eCollection 2022.

An observer who can resolve details as small as 1 minute of visual angle scores LogMAR 0, since the base-10 logarithm of 1 is 0; an observer who can resolve details as small as 2 minutes of visual angle (i.e., reduced acuity) scores LogMAR 0.3, since the base-10 logarithm of 2 is near-approximately 0.3; and so on. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41433-021-01764-y, DOI: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41433-021-01764-y.

Conversion of Snellen visual acuity to LogMAR visual acuity. Conversion of Snellen visual acuity fractions to approxETDRS letter scores for the purpose of performing statistical manipulations provides more readily interpretable outcomes compared with the current strategy of converting Snellen visual acuity fractions to logMAR units.

In 1982, the chart was renamed the ETDRS chart as it was recommended to be used in the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (note: the terms ETDRS chart and logMAR chart are not interchangeable logMAR is not a type of chart, but rather a term to describe visual acuity notation. Basically the opposite of myop() - a slightly intelligent wrapper around tidyr::pivot_longer() and tidyr::pivot_wider(). reveal() takes the grouping argument by and it returns vector for atomic vectors or a data frame for lists. However, visual acuity measurements expressed as logMAR units are not intuitively interpretable by clinicians.

If you are not happy with the automatic column selection, you can manually select the VA and IOP columns with the arguments va_cols or iop_cols. From the laboratory to the clinic. Depending a lot on how the data was entered, the results could become quite surprising. 1) hence reducing risk of transcription errors. It is more user friendly, since it avoids decimal values and is more intuitive, since higher values indicate better vision. Cleans and converts visual acuity notations (classes) (Also see related commentary by Andrew P. Schachat, MD, and Marco A. Zarbin, MD, in the same issue. Most retrospective reviews convert Snellen visual acuity measurements obtained during routine clinic visits to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) units so that statistical manipulations can be performed.
