“…While there is evidence in support of measuring the full CSF to distinguish certain low-vision groups (Bour & Apkarian, 1996; Hess & Howell, 1977; Kupersmith, Seiple, Nelson, & Carr, 1984), there is also evidence to show redundancy in the information provided by these techniques (Elliott & Whitaker, 1992; Woods & Wood, 1995). In fact, Chung and Legge (2016) recently proposed a provocative hypothesis regarding this issue, suggesting that the CSF curve of an individual might be accurately estimated by simply shifting a standard “template” CSF horizontally and vertically along the log axes according to independent measures of high-contrast visual acuity and letter CS, respectively. If the full range of an individual CSF can be accurately recovered from these two auxiliary measures, then this would suggest redundancy with more common, and efficient, clinical measures of visual function and, as a practical matter, may obviate the apparent need in many cases to measure the full CSF.…”
