Resumen

El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar las curvas de sensibilidad al contraste (SC) en adultos y ancianos. La FSC se midió por rejillas sinusoidales verticales utilizando el método psicofísico de elección forzada (2AFC). Los participantes fueron 18 adultos de edades comprendidas entre 20 y 29 años y 18 ancianos de 60 a 69 años, de ambos sexos. La ANOVA mostró diferencias significativas en los efectos principales de los grupos [F(1, 156) = 173.160; p < 0.001] y una interacción entre las frecuencias y la edad [F(3,427) = 163.365; p < 0,001]. En el test de Bonferroni fueron encontradas diferencias significativas en todas las frecuencias analizadas (p < 0,001). Se encontró que el estándar de la SC se mantiene con el envejecimiento, teniendo la zona de menor sensibilidad situada en el extremo de la curva y una mayor sensibilidad cerca del centro de la curva. Además, se sugiere cambios en el sentido visual y perceptual a lo largo de la vida.
