Journal Article
Enhancing the contrast sensitivity function through action video game training
2009
Overview
This study finds that playing an action video game results in improvements in visual contrast sensitivity. These improvements do not happen for an equivalent group who played a non-action video game.
The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) is routinely assessed in clinical evaluation of vision and is the primary limiting factor in how well one sees. CSF improvements are typically brought about by correction of the optics of the eye with eyeglasses, contact lenses or surgery. We found that the very act of action video game playing also enhanced contrast sensitivity, providing a complementary route to eyesight improvement.
