Please help? is the meaning of visual acuity- the "ability to discriminate between two points"?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Close: A better definition would be the measurement of the minimum distance at which two points can be distinguished as two. We use a very weird and ancient way to write this down called snellen acuity.
