TY - JOUR PY - 1936// TI - The tolerance of light in nonphotophobic individuals JO - American journal of ophthalmology A1 - Albers, Edward C. A1 - Sheard, Charles SP - 407 EP - 412 VL - 19 IS - 5 N2 - RESULTS are given concerning the tolerance for light, as determined by glarometric methods readily adapted to clinical investigations, of 144 persons who did not complain of ocular discomfort nor sensitiveness to light under ordinary conditions. Frequency distributions of glare-out measurements are given for binocular and monocular observations of the target under a specified intensity of illumination. Data are presented concerning the effects produced on glare-out values by the use of various absorptive filters, changes in intensity of the illumination at the fixation target, and changes in the spectral character of the glare field.
