The French use monoyer chart for measuring VA. Current IG does not support this.

Is the monoyer word correct spelling?

Not a problem it is an upside down version of the Snellen (apparently Monoyer introduced the term dioptre!)

Hello! I've noticed the standard example to record VA is the logMAR. as shown here. I'd like to store the additional recordings leading up to the logMAR calculation (distance, intermediate, near). Is there a consensus on how to store this together?
