Amber filter with self-administered near vision screening card / Saiful Azlan Rosli … [et al.]
Visibility is defined as the greatest distance at which an object can be seen and recognized in either daylight or at night when the general illumination is increased to a daylight level. Visibility can be influenced by several factors, which include colour and contrast. Previous studies, which inve...

Visibility is defined as the greatest distance at which an object can be seen and recognized in either daylight or at night when the general illumination is increased to a daylight level. Visibility can be influenced by several factors, which include colour and contrast. Previous studies, which investigates the effects of colour combinations to level of visibility and visual performance on road signs, found that there is a significant difference in the level of visibility with different colour combinations (p< 0.05). It is clearly understood that in our nature environment and work tasks, each factors described above are variable, which in turn varies the level of visibility. Based on the supportive evidence from previous studies, visual aid such as amber lens can be used as an application to improve the level of visibility of a person in his/her daily work tasks.
