Abstract
The clinical usefulness of the Arden grating test in assessing early abnormalities in retinal function of [human] diabetics was explored. Although the test revealed significant differences in contrast sensitivities between diabetics and normal persons, the large variances in the test scores of diabetics limit its use as a clinical tool for the screening of diabetic patients.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
