Abstract
Veiling glare in ocular viewing was simulated by viewing the retina of an eye model through a sheet of light-scattering material lit from the front. Four methods of glare reduction were compared, namely, optical scanning, polarized light, viewing and illumination paths either coaxial or intersecting at the object, and closed circuit TV. Photographs show the effect of these methods on visibility. Polarized light was required to eliminate light specularly reflected from the instrument optics. The greatest glare reduction was obtained when the first three methods were utilized together. Glare reduction using TV was limited by nonuniform distribution of scattered light over the image.
