I recently discovered the “free’ online color blind tests that use the Ishihara plates. Does anyone have any experience with those? Yes, they come with a disclaimer
regarding color variation with different computer monitors.

Good Evening,
We are interested in knowing if your facility screens health care providers for color deciphering (i.e. Ishihara or Farnsworth). If so, would you please share what screening
mythology you use and if you have a product that works well (vendor for purchases).
Thanks much!
