Signs of potential colour deficiency that prompt colour vision testing include difficulty distinguishing between certain colours (particularly reds and greens), trouble matching colours, inability to see some coloured text against coloured backgrounds, and uncertainty when selecting ripe fruit or cooking meat to desired doneness.
While most colour vision deficiencies are inherited and cannot be “cured,” our colour vision management program offers strategies and technologies to enhance colour discrimination and adapt to colour perception challenges. We can evaluate specialized tinted lenses, digital apps, and workplace modifications to improve functional colour vision.
Yes, our colour vision testing services include standardized evaluations that meet requirements for transportation, aviation, maritime, military, electrical trades, and public safety occupations. We provide detailed documentation of results that satisfy most organizational and licensing standards.
We recommend colour vision testing for all school-age children, as early identification helps educators provide appropriate accommodations. Colour vision deficiencies can impact learning in subjects using colour-coding such as mathematics, science, geography, and art.
A complete colour vision assessment typically takes 20-30 minutes, depending on the number of tests required to accurately classify any deficiencies. More extensive testing, such as the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue test for occupational certification, may require additional time.
Inherited colour vision deficiencies remain stable throughout life. However, during your colour vision testing, we also screen for acquired colour vision problems that could indicate eye disease or medication effects. Any changes in colour perception should be evaluated promptly, as they may signal underlying health conditions.
