Event-Related Potentials Allow for Optotype-Based Objective Acuity Estimation

摘要： The event-related potential P300 has been proposed for objective acuity estimation. In contrast to the acuity VEP, which relies on grating or checkerboard stimuli, the P300 can be recorded to small stimulus differences, making it suitable to use optotype stimuli. This may result in a better agreement with subjective measures of acuity than that found with VEP-based estimates. We tested the feasibility of using Landolt C optotypes with a P300 acuity paradigm and assessed the relationship between subjective and objective acuity estimates for both optotype and grating stimuli.
