Relevance: The main objective of the study is to compare the Contrast Sensitivity (CS) curve obtained with three different devices in healthy patients. Two of the instruments used employ sinusoidal gratings as stimuli, while one of them uses letters as stimuli.Purpose: This study aimed to compare the CS curve obtained with three different devices in healthy patients.Methods: The sample consisted of 72 emmetropic or previously corrected refractive error eyes, of which 44.45% were male and 55.55% were female. The mean age of the subjects was 24.67±2.58 years. Measurement conditions were replicated for all subjects.Results: The results indicate significant differences in CS measurements obtained using the CC-100XP® compared to measurements obtained with the OptoMeP® and Optotab®. No significant differences were found between measurements collected with the OptoMeP® and the Optotab®. All three instruments showed good repeatability.Conclusions: The three tests provide reliable and reproducible CS measurements. Those employing sinusoidal gratings yield higher CS values than those using letters. The Topcon CC-100XP overestimates CS values compared to the other two instruments.
