Résumé
OBJECTIVE@#To study the application value of contrast vision in identifying the malingering decreased vision in the practice of clinical forensic medicine.@*METHODS@#Thirty-one young and middle aged volunteers were selected and divided randomly into group 1 (16 persons with 32 eyes) and group 2 (15 persons with 30 eyes). The optotype contrast was 100%, 25%, 10% and 5%, respectively. The contrast vision of group 1 was tested. The contrast vision of group 2 was tested as follows: (1) the volunteers cooperated without inspector's interference; (2) the volunteers cooperated under inspector's interference; (3) the volunteers disguised decreased vision without inspector's interference; (4) the volunteers disguised decreased vision under inspector's interference. The data was then analyzed by statistics.@*RESULTS@#There was a close correlation between contrast vision and contrast. As the contrast decreased, the vision acuity also decreased. The contrast vision curve of former two methods showed a good reproducibility while the contrast vision curve of latter two methods had a bad reproducibility.@*CONCLUSION@#The repetition of contrast curve with or without inspector's interference can be used to discriminate malingering vision. The acquired contrast curves can be provided to the court as direct evidence and can help enhance the verification conclusion.
