Melbourne Edge Test (MET) chart

The chart consists of a single luminance profile in four different orientations: horizontal, vertical, 45° left, and 45° right. The MET is a non-grating contrast sensitivity chart. This test measures the contrast threshold for a single luminance profile edge, which is an aperiodic stimulus.

Printed on Epson Premium Glossy Photo paper.

Pricing (incl. GST)

$165 excluding delivery costs.

Hi-Low contrast LogMAR chart

This chart presents a side by side view of 2 LogMAR letter series (3/19 – 3/3.8). One is of normal contrast and the other of 10% contrast. It can be used reliably in low vision testing by reducing the test distance. The chart comes mounted in a frame for extra durability.

Pricing (incl. GST)
