Another aspect of vision, and one that is
more immune to light pollution than is brightness, is
visual acuity — the ability to resolve fine detail.
«Fast vision may, in fact, be a
more typical feature of birds in general than
visual acuity.
Each year,
more than one million Americans are afflicted with severely reduced
visual acuity caused by corneal damage or disease.
All of our participants had a difference in crowded
visual acuity of two lines or
more between the two eyes, and had normal vision in the sound eye (∼ 20/12 — 20/16).
Steven Spielberg's
visual acuity and sensitivity to space and light remain leaps and bounds beyond the ken of most directors, and his impulse to put on a show and his ability to give an audience

more functional limitations.

visual function and objective
visual acuity.

more functional limitations, feelings of social isolation, and depressive symptomatology and that poorer
visual acuity was related to
more functional limitations.
The simple slopes analysis showed that, as expected,
visual acuity was unrelated to functional limitations when relationship satisfaction was high (B = − 0.09, t = − 0.29, p = n.s.), but poor
visual acuity significantly predicted
more functional limitations when relationship satisfaction was low (B = 0.72, t = 2.54, p <.01).
Future research may gain further by assessing even
more specific aspects of
visual function objectively (e.g., impairment in depth perception, extreme contrast or brightness sensitivity in addition to
visual acuity as assessed in NSHAP) and subjectively (e.g., self - reported trouble with reading newspaper print and recognizing people at a small distance in addition to the global assessment of one's vision as assessed in NSHAP) in the study of the effects of vision on quality of life and the capacity of a good marriage to alter these effects.
