Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was a comparative analysis of the effect of distance contrast sensitivity when wearing free-form progressive lens and conventional progressive lens. Methods: The 20 subjects who do not have any ocular diseases were participated in this study. Contrast sensitivities at 5 different levels of spatial frequency were conducted by using FACT (Stereo Optical, USA). Results: Contrast sensitivity was measured for free-form progressive lens and conventional progressive lens in the order of right eye, left eye and binocular. Right/left/binocular contrast sensitivity values of the free-form progressive lenses compared to the conventional progressive lenses were higher 16%/17%/11% at A(1.5 cpd) of spatial frequency, 11%/5%/5% at B(3 cpd) of spatial frequency, 6%/6%/9% at C(6 cpd) of spatial frequency, 19%/16%/13% at D(12 cpd) of spatial frequency, 4%/3%/18% at E(18 cpd) of spatial frequency. Conclusions: In all the area of spatial frequency, distance contrast sensitivity values were measured highly on free-form progressive lens than on conventional progressive lens.
목적: 본 연구에서는 프리폼 누진렌즈와 일반 누진렌즈를 착용 하였을 때 원거리 대비감도에 미치는 영향을 비교 분석 하였다. 방법: 안질환이 없는 성인 20명을 대상으로 원거리 대비감도 검사를 실시하였고 5단계의 공간 주파수를 갖는 F.A.C.T.(Stereo Optical, USA)를 이용하였다. 우안, 좌안, 양안 순서로 프리폼 누진렌즈와 일반누진렌즈 대비감도를 측정하였다. 결과: 우안/좌안/양안 대비감도 검사 값이 A(1.5 cpd) 공간주파수에서는 일반 누진렌즈에 비교하여 프리폼 누진렌즈가 16%/17%/11%, B(3 cpd) 공간주파수에서는 11%/5%/5%, C(6 cpd) 공간주파수에서는 6%/6%/9%, D(12 cpd) 공간주파수에서는 19%/16%/13%, E(18 cpd) 공간주파수에서는 4%/3%/18% 높았다. 결론: 원거리 대비감도의 모든 공간주파수 영역에서 프리폼 누진렌즈가 일반 누진렌즈보다 측정값이 높게 측정되었다.
