Journal ArticleDOI

Visual acuity and contrast sensitivity in multiple sclerosis--hidden visual loss: an auxiliary diagnostic test.

TL;DR: In 48 patients with multiple sclerosis sine-wave gratings were used to test visual sensitivity for coarse, medium, and fine detail rather than measuring visual acuity for fine detail only, and in 20 patients the test revealed a visual defect of neural origin, qualitatively different from that caused by refractive error.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of body temperature on visual evoked potential delay and visual perception in multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: The medium frequency flicker evoked potential test seems to be a less reliable means of monitoring the progress of demyelination in multiple sclerosis patients than is double-flash campimetry or perceptual delay campimeter, although in some situations the objectivity of the evoked possible test would be advantageous.
