Table 1.

Details of subjects split into three age categories.

Age category
<30 ≥30 and <60 ≥60
Mean age 23 [22, 24] 43 [39, 47] 69 [66, 72]
Age range
Minimum 19 32 60
Maximum 29 59 98
n 18 17 27
SEX
Female 8 9 11
Male 10 8 16
40 cm decimal acuity 1.41 [1.32, 1.51] 1.21 [1.07, 1.34] 0.97 [0.89, 1.06]
Contrast sensitivity 1.97 [1.93, 2.02] 1.95 [1.95, 1.95] 1.92 [1.88, 1.95]
Years of education 18 [17, 19] 20 [19, 22] 15 [14, 16]

The three age categories are arbitrary but often cut-offs at 30 and 60 define younger and older groups in the literature.
