Abstract

Results are given concerning the tolerance for light, as determined by glarometric methods readily adapted to clinical investigations, of 144 persons who did not complain of ocular discomfort nor sensitiveness to light under ordinary conditions. Frequency distributions of glare-out measurements are given for binocular and monocular observations of the target under a specified intensity of illumination. Data are presented concerning the effects produced on glare-out values by the use of various absorptive filters, changes in intensity of the illumination at the fixation target, and changes in the spectral character of the glare field. From the Division of Physics and Biophysical Research of the Mayo Foundation. Abridgment of thesis submitted by Dr. E. C. Albers to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Minnesota in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ophthalmology. Work done in the Division of Physics and Biophysical Research.
