Understanding the Colour Blind Test - Including Self Red / Green Colour Deficiency Test - Dr Gill
NB IF YOU WANT TO JUMP TO THE COLOUR VISION TEST, YOU'LL FIND IT AT 11:03 MINS IN
One of the lesser approaches - by medical students anyway - parts of the neurological examination is looking at colour vision
There is a requirement for red saturation to be tested in the cranial nerves, as this can indicate optic neuritis, the further investigation into colour vision is often omitted
This is a shame as 1:12 men, and 1 in 200 women have a colour vision deficiency.
Whilst the commonest is red (Protan) and green (deuteran) deficiencies, there are other rarer forms, but they are beyond the scope of the simple office Ishihara test.
The Ishihara colour blind test allows for determining if someone has red/green colourblindness and also help diagnoses the type
Ensure you what to the end of the video, both for the initial test, and also how to determine the type - if any - of colour vision deficiencies you might have
