eyeSnellen app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Steve Colley
First release : 20 Dec 2012
App size: 15.8 Mb
The MOST accurate visual acuity test on the iPad (or iPad mini).
A built-in auto-calibration function on the iPhone/iPod will adjust the size of the Snellen Chart (and brightness) to produce accurate and reproducible results.
The iPad chart is fully functional, but the best way to use the app is with the iPhone/iPod remote (this requires an in-app purchase for full functionality).
An auto-dim function is set to time the screen out at 2 minute to prevent the iPad battery from being depleted (this is now user adjustable).
Tested with all iPad versions (maximal chart distance 7.4m/24ft), and with the iPad mini (maximal chart distance 6m/20ft). Tested with all current iPods with a built-in camera and iPhones except the iPhone 3.
The app has been tested by Ophthalmologists, feedback is encouraged.
