Figures & data
Figure 1 Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals for mean reading speed [wpm] before and after providing low vision aids in group of patients with magnification requirement (MR) up to 3-fold (before/after: 27 ± 33/95 ± 28), in group of patients with MR of 4 to 6- fold (before/after: 7.4 ± 14/72 ± 24) and in group of patients with MR of more than 6-fold (before/after: 0.3 ± 3.0/46 ± 20). In all three groups, mean reading speed increased significantly with suitable visual aids.

Figure 2 Bars showing means (+ SD) of the total amount of the difference of reading speed before and after providing low vision aids. Patients with a lower magnification requirement (up to 6-fold) showed a higher increase of reading speed (67 ± 28 wpm) than patients with higher magnification requirement (> 6-fold) (45 ± 20 wpm) (p < 0.0001).
