Abstract

This study examined the relationship of the crash rate of over 12.400 licensed operators in Pennsylvania with visual performance on contrast sensitivity (6, 12, and 18 cycles /degree), static visual acuity, and horizontal visual fields. Results showed no significant correlation between poor visual performance on visual acuity, horizontal visual fields or selected contrast sensitivity tests and a high incidence of crashes.
