Description |
Binocular vision testing, performed with both eyes uncovered, is useful for reflecting daily activities. Low-contrast letter acuity (LCLA), the Mobile Universal Lexicon Evaluation System (MULES, rapid picture naming) and the Staggered Uneven Number (SUN, rapid number naming) have been used successfully in studies of multiple sclerosis, concussion and Parkinson's disease. We determined the capacity for LCLA, MULES and SUN, to distinguish patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease and Alzheimer's dementia (AD) vs. cognitively normal controls. |
