Psychophysical Evaluation of Achromatic and Chromatic Vision of Workers Chronically Exposed to Organic Solvents

Abstract: The purpose of this paper was to evaluate achromatic and chromatic vision of workers chronically exposed to organic solvents through psychophysical methods. Thirty-one gas station workers (31.5 ± 8.4 years old) were evaluated. Psychophysical tests were achromatic tests (Snellen chart, spatial and temporal contrast sensitivity, and visual perimetry) and chromatic tests (Ishihara's test, color discrimination ellipses, and Farnsworth-Munsell 100 hue test—FM100). Spatial contrast sensitivities of exposed workers w… Show more

“…In a psychophysical test for evaluating visual function in 29 gas station workers, Lacerda et al [188] found lower spatial contrast sensitivities, higher error values in frequency modulation 100 (FM100), and a wider color discrimination ellipse area in exposed workers as compared with controls.…”

“…Estima-se que 25% da população trabalhadora exposta seja portadora de PAINPSE em algum grau (25)(26)(27)(28) . Este trabalho poderá contribuir para a redução da incidência de perdas de audição geradas por altos níveis de pressão sonora, minimizando os danos causados pelo ruído a trabalhadores por meio de um programa de conservação auditiva.…”
