Eye Chart TemplateAn eye chart, also referred to as Snellen chart after Hermann Snellen who invented it in 1862, is a chart used to test visual acuity. An eye chart consists of rows of letters that begin with one big letter on the topmost row. Lower rows contain more letters with increasingly smaller size. People who undergo the test are requested to stand six feet in front of the chart and to read each single letter on the chart. Their visual acuity is determined by the smallest letter on the chart that they can read. The letters printed on the chart are not necessarily the same and although the chart generally uses white background with black letters printed on it, a variation with the combination of black background and white letter can also be used.

This eye chart is a simple template that can be used to create an eye chart. Because an eye chart has already had a determined size for the chart and its letters, the template can be printed immediately with very minimal modification. Its page size doesn’t need to be modified and its letters have already had their perfect size. Changing of letters is possible whenever necessary. Given that it is a Microsoft Word template, modification of it should be a quick, easy and hassle-free task.
