[MCOH-EH] Color blindness screening

[Boruff, Lisa J. (IHS/PHX)]

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.

Ok-screening is not a myth:)  How about sharing your methodology, please.  Thanks!  Steph

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!
