True or False:

A tumbling E eye chart can be used to assess vision in patients who cannot read the alphabet.

  1. True
  2. False
Explanation

Answer: A

A tumbling E chart is used to evaluate a patient's vision. The chart is especially helpful for patients who cannot read the alphabet and those who cannot communicate in English. Rather than reading a range of letters, patients are asked to determine which direction the 'fingers' of the letter E are pointing. The entire alphabet is substituted with the tumbling letter E.
