Prediction of changes in visual acuity and contrast sensitivity function by tissue redness after pterygium surgery

The goal of this study was to predict visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity function (CSF)with tissue redness grading after pterygium surgery. A total of 67 primary pterygium participants were selected from patients who visited an ophthalmology clinic. We developed a semi-automated computer p...
