Visual acuity is a critical component of visual function assessment for all ages. Standardized vision testing protocols may help prevent testing inconsistencies resulting from variations in test administration and interpretation of different examiners. However, most vision assessments outside of research settings, including in doctor's offices, rarely employ standardized protocols. Validated protocols such as the Early Treatment for Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) are frequently employed by vision researchers to ensure accurate and repeatable visual acuity measurements.
