Abstract

1. A simplified vision test chart which is composed of test types of arabic figures and Landolt's rings for 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.8 and 1.0 was designed by the author. 2. The test chart may be used at school for screeing the students who have decreased vision in early stage, and so school myopia can be prevented or cured by medical treatment. 3. It is also recommended to be used for testing the vision of students once every month at home to preserve good vision and prevent school myopia which is so much increased among the students that it has become a serious social problem in Korea.
