Why are one and only unquestionable parcels used for the eye chart?

Why are one and only unquestionable parcels used for the eye chart?
Some letters are easier to see than others. Like 'I' or 'A'. They don't look similar to anything else. 'B' and 'R' are easy to verbs if you can't see them well. Or 'O' and 'Q', or 'N' and 'M' or even 'H'.
When I be a kid the eye chart we had at institution didn't have junk mail, it only have 'E's, but they were square, I anticipate as wide as they be high, and they pointed within all four directions, and you pointed which approach you thought they pointed. I'm guessing now that this be so kindergartners could be tested who didn't know the alphabet. But it had the positive aspect that every letter be equally easy to see!
At the DMV here within California they have a chart beside diamond shapes, each divided into billet, with one quarter a different stencil. That's pretty cool too!
Because they can look like other post to someone with a perception impairment. Like a lower case h and a lower covering b are awful close, c's and o's, capital E's and F's, etc.
They are looking at correspondence that look alike so it isn't easy to share them apart. Most people will mistake a note for them same thing if they are in close proximity sighted or whatever.
These junk mail used are often the most slickly confused one by the human eye. Some letter are so distinct by their shape that even someone near lower vision will be capable of guess it. Thus the evaluation will not be correct.
The snellen eye chart is the most common used. The trellis site below explains it.
