To evaluate color discrimination ability (CDA), stereoscopic acuity (SA), and contrast sensitivity (CS) by considering age factor and educational level in healthy individuals. This study was design as a prospective study.
The study included 43 binocular healthy individuals (31 males; mean age, 25.79±6.83 years) without a color vision deficiency who were aged between ≥18 years and ≤40 years and had an educational level of secondary education or higher. The following tests/system were used: the Farnsworth Munsell 100 (FM100) hue test for CDA; the TNO and Titmus tests for SA; the automatized ClearChart® 2 Digital Acuity System for CS. Total error score (TES), blue-yellow (b-y) local error score (LES) and red-green (r-g) LES of the FM100 hue test were 25.40±20.89, 14.26±12.09 and 10.53±10.13, respectively. Stereo test scores were 52.33±43.35 arcsec and 43.02±9.14 arcsec for the TNO and Titmus tests, respectively. The logCS score was 2.5±0 at low- and mid-spatial frequencies and 3.84±1.92 at high-spatial frequency. In the correlation analyses, TNO test score was positively correlated with TES, b-y LES, and r-g LES (r=0.339, p=0.021; r=0.309, p=0.036; and r=0.308, p=0.037, respectively). The Titmus test score was positively correlated with TES, b-y LES, and r-g LES (r=0.575, p
