“…This is in contrast to Hofeldt's study, which found that the INC was more predictive in eyes with comorbid disease than in eyes without comorbid disease. 12 Alio et al 14 found that the PAM was less predictive in patients with age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) than in the overall study group. It is possible that the smaller size of our subgroup with macular comorbidity (n ¼ 40) or the particular types of macular disease in our study group may account for some of the difference in results.…”

“…3,12 The degree of lens opacity present in these patients is the likely factor that limits potential acuity testing, especially when using methods that rely on a projection of a pinpoint light source such as the PAM and the INC. Thus, we chose to only include patients with a preoperative BSCVA of 20/200 or better in this study.…”

“…A number of methods using different examination equipment have been described: electroretinography (Bertrand et al 1984;Sherman et al 1988;Wu et al 1991), visual evoked potentials (Bertrand et al 1984;Odom et al 1987;Sherman et al 1988;Mori et al 2001), colour saturation discrimination (Kogure et al 1999), blue-field entoptic tests (Sinclair et al 1979;Miris & Missotten 1982;Grignolo et al 1988), B-scan ultrasonography (Sherman et al 1988), critical flicker frequency (del Romo et al 2005), laser or whitelight interferometry (Lotmar 1980;Spurny et al 1986;Lasa et al 1995;Le Sage et al 2002;Reid et al 2005) and potential acuity meter (PAM) (Spurny et al 1986;Lasa et al 1995;Devereux et al 2000;Gus et al 2000;Le Sage et al 2002;Reid et al 2005;Uy & Munoz 2005). Other tests using routine eye examination equipment have also been proposed: potential acuity pinhole test (Melki et al 1999;Uy & Munoz 2005), illuminated near card assessment (Hofeldt & Weiss 1998) and reading speed test (Pesudovs et al 2002;Stifter et al 2005); these have been compared to the more sophisticated methods (Uy & Munoz 2005). Vryghem et al (2004) proposed a simple and inexpensive macular function test using a Parinaud near reading chart, a +8 D trial lens and a Heine ophthalmoscope, which they called the Vryghem macular function test (VMFT).…”
