Quality of vision is a new comprehensive set of measures that determines visual performance at near, far and in variable light conditions. Good vision is no longer defined by 20/20 vision. The necessity of evaluating vision beyond Snellen acuity has led clinicians and vision scientists to utilize contrast sensitivity, wavefront aberrometry and straylight measurement in most clinical trials related to vision. Recently,the advent of 3D movies and 3D TVs brought us new challenges regarding 3 3 Dimensional Quality of Vision. In this course, experts will share with you their experience on this new frontier of modern ophthalmology.
