ABSTRACT

All the health professionals should be interested in providing excellent service of quality that meet the requirement of the patients who go to the different specialty services The clinical exam in all its phases is fundamental to achieve this purpose, supported by the technological advances and in line with the customized care of each patient. For these reasons, this study is aimed at delving into the knowledge and the interpretation of results achieved in the measurement, using logarithmic optotypes, of the visual acuity of low vision and deep ambliopia patients seen at the Low Vision Service of “Ramon Pando Ferrer” Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology. A comprehensive, broad and deep literature review was made on this topic, which helped to expand and to improve the knowledge on the usefulness and advantages of the use of LogMAR optotype in this subspecialty and in the ophthalmological field in general.
