چکیده
Congenital colour vision anomalies are common, with red/green anomaly affecting 8-10% of males. Acquired loss of colour perception can be a sensitive indicator of macular and optic nerve disease. It is vital to understand how colour vision tests can be used effectively to diagnose the type of colour anomaly. This article reviews the different tests available and the protocols for their appropriate use, with an emphasis on standardised examination techniques. Word Count: 2207 words.
