Resum

It is well-known the advantages of measuring chromatic and achromatic contrast sensitivity for detecting pathologies. But these measurements are rarely used in clinical practice, due the complexity of the measurements and the examinator specialization. In fact, there is not a complete characterization of the response of the visual pathways to achromatic and chromatic spatio-temporal frequency stimuli. We have designed a new experimental device that facilitates these measurements and allow us to characterize the visual response in healthy patients. In this paper, we evaluated the responses of the visual pathways in healthy patients.
