C VS Home Eye Problems Do eye problems result from Driving? • Yes, but not necessarily more than similar visual tasks. • Other factors contribute to or may cause ‘eye problems’, these include: Lighting – Dusk/Dawn, Fog, Rain, Snow and Sleet. Posture. Tiredness. Environment. Some types of medication. Existing weakness with vision. • Age is important and symptoms include blurry vision and especially at night with halos and extended recovery time from the effects of dazzle increase with age. • Contact lenses and Multi/Varifocal glasses can cause their own special types of problems.

C VS l l l Home Questionnaire The Vision Screener starts with a series of simple questions, over a few screens, gathering information to be used in the programs decision process.

C VS Home The Tests The tests are randomised where possible to avoid improvement by ‘learning’ the sequence of letters or position of targets. l Comprehensive range of tests l • • • Amsler Chart to be completed at 50 cms. Visual Acuity to be completed at 1 metre. Optionally there is a Number Search task at 1 metre. Eye Co-ordination to be completed at 1 metre. Peripheral Vision to be completed at 1 metre with wall targets. Distance Acuity to be done at between 3 and 4 metres from the screen. Previous © CITY Visual Systems 1989 - 2012 Next 6

C VS • • Home Amsler Chart This test is done at 50 cms. Suggest that the driver rests his elbows on the table. Checking the central area of vision for blind spots, astigmatism, or other problems with eyes, brain and the visual system. Previous © CITY Visual Systems 1989 - 2012 Next 7

C VS • • • Home Visual Acuity This test is done at 1 metre. Ask the driver to sit back. Helps to determine if the driver can see the dash board clearly. Starts with the smallest detail that can be displayed on the screen. Gap starts at 1 pixel. Broken square is displayed in one of four directions. Size increases when error(s) are made. Each eye is tested, then both eyes. Previous © CITY Visual Systems 1989 - 2012 Next 8

C VS • • Home Eye Co-ordination Use the Red and Green Filter (red to right). Don’t worry if you use them the wrong way round. Measures how well the user can compensate for any muscle imbalances. Linked to symptoms such as double vision and headaches. Tiredness, stress, some drugs or alcohol can make this test more difficult. Some drivers may say that one line is more dim, or not as sharp, or flicking on then off. Please ask them if the lines are approximately straight with each other.

C VS • • Home Peripheral Vision This test is beyond the legal requirements, however it is used to demonstrate how well, we can see “out of the corner of the eye”. Place the letter fixation targets on the walls at 60° and 90°on the right and left, using the measuring card supplied. Make sure that you align the letters from the drivers viewing position. When performing the test don’t allow the driver to sit back. If their spectacle frame gets in the way, then this shows that they may be inappropriate, resume testing without them. The answers are Nothing, Shape and Flashing. If they correctly identify the shape then ‘press’ shape. Most people can identify the type of shape at 60°, but only if there is something flashing at 90°. Previous © CITY Visual Systems 1989 - 2012 Next 10

C VS • • • Home Distance Acuity This test compares the measured acuity to the legal requirement. The supervisor must measure a mark a distance from the screen, preferably between 3 and 4 metres, no more than 6 metres. The driver must stand at this mark and attempt to read the letters. Letters are randomised and start with the smallest letters displayed. If glasses are normally worn, the first part tests each eye without the glasses. You should press the 5 Wrong button until they can see the letters. Previous © CITY Visual Systems 1989 - 2012 Next 11
