    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    ISO 8596:2009 specifies a range of Landolt ring optotypes and describes a method for measuring distance visual acuity under daylight conditions for the purposes of certification or licensing.

    It is neither intended as a standard for clinical measurements nor for the certification of blindness or partial sight.
