Object analysis of the Stilling tables

R Lakowski

    Modern Problems in Ophthalmology
    |January 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    The Stilling tables, used for color vision testing, show limited effectiveness in diagnosing acquired dyschromatopsias due to ambiguous designs and limited alignment with specific color vision deficiency lines.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Color Vision Science
    • Visual Perception

    Background:

    • Color vision testing is crucial for diagnosing visual impairments.
    • Standardized plates like Ishihara and Stilling tables are commonly used.
    • Understanding the colorimetric properties of these plates is essential for their diagnostic accuracy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To colorimetrically evaluate the Stilling tables.
    • To assess the Stilling tables' efficacy in differentiating various types of color vision defects.
    • To determine the diagnostic utility of Stilling tables for acquired dyschromatopsias.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of Stilling tables within the CIE color space.
    • Spectrophotometric analysis of ink reflectance curves.
    • Colorimetric alignment of table designs with protan, deutan, and tetartan confusion lines.

    Main Results:

    • Stilling tables occupy a similar CIE space to Ishihara plates, with some extending into blue and green areas.
    • Most tables align with deutan confusion lines; only table III clearly aligns with protan lines.
    • Tables designed for blue-yellow deficiency testing, except table XII, show indefinite designs.

    Conclusions:

    • The Stilling tables have limited usefulness for detecting acquired dyschromatopsias.
    • Ambiguous designs and limited alignment with specific color vision deficiency lines reduce diagnostic accuracy.
    • Further refinement of color vision testing tools is needed for comprehensive diagnosis.
