They drove a driving simulator under 7 different induced peripheral refractive errors (baseline (0D), spherical lenses of +/- 2D, +/- 4D and cylindrical lenses of +2D and +4D). Peripheral visual acuity and contrast sensitivity were also evaluated at 40°. Driving performance was significantly impaired by the addition of myopic defocus (4D) and astigmatism (4D). Worse driving significantly correlated with worse contrast sensitivity for the route in general, but also with worse visual acuity when participants interacted with the secondary task. Induced peripheral refractive errors may negatively impact driving when performing secondary tasks.}, organization = {FEDER/Junta de Andalucia-Consejeria de Transformacion Economica, Industria, Conocimiento y Universidades MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 PID2020-115184RB-I00}, organization = {Agencia Estatal de Investigacion A-FQM-532-UGR20}, organization = {Fundacion Seneca PID2019-105684RB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033 19897/GERM/15}, publisher = {Optical Society of America}, title = {Effect of peripheral refractive errors on driving performance}, doi = {10.1364/BOE.468032}, author = {Ortiz Peregrina, Sonia and Casares López, Miriam and Castro Torres, José Juan and González Anera, María Del Rosario}, }
