Curious about how bad nighttime driving is in patients with FECD? Read more about our study in collaboration with @UIowaDSRI here ⤵
Driving in the Dark: Fuchs’ Patients Have Reduced Nighttime Vision Despite Normal VA In a small pilot study, these individuals had to be nearly twice as close to roadside hazards to recognize them. https://t.co/H2kn4SRIpS

We quantified driving performance in FECD compared to controls with similar VA (~20/20) and contrast sensitivity. FECD pts had significantly worse driving performance and reacted to roadside hazards nearly 10x slower than someone at the legal BAC (0.08%)
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Despite normal VA and CS, patients with FECD performed significantly worse in driving simulations than controls. Driving disability was associated with tomographic measures of subclinical corneal...
