Abstract

[...]the relevant literature fails to reveal direct evidence for the role of visual acuity in accidentology and risky driving behavior [14, 19], thus suggesting that static visual acuity measurement alone might not be a reliable predictor of driving safety [3, 20]. Since the beginning of the 20th century, the evolution of car design has not only improved driver comfort and safety, but has also modified the visual content and display of the information in the dashboard. [...]risk will potentially also exist in presence of uncorrected myopic defocus, refractive blur or decreased binocular integration. [...]these were demonstrated to affect the response time to read [33], the cueing detection in a contextual cueing paradigm [34], and the overall mental workload of the multiple tasks [35, 36].
