If you suspect that you are having trouble seeing some of the colors of the rainbow, it may be time to get an appointment with your optometrist in the Eagle, ID area for a color blind test. The test is very easy and simple.
How We Test Your Color Vision
At Six One Six Vision Center we use the HRR (Hardy Rand and Rittler) Pseudoisochromatic Plate Test 4th Edition to determine if you have a color vision deficiency. This test not only tells you what type of color vision deficiency you have – protan, deutan, or tritan, but also informs you of how prevalent the issue is – mild, medium, or strong. The great thing about this test is even for those shy kids that may need a little more time to warm up to the eye doctor, there’s a way to communicate the answers without having to say a thing!
Who Should Be Tested?
It is surprising how many people are actually colorblind without even knowing it. This is because they are born not seeing all colors, so they know nothing different. If you are considering going into a job where recognizing and using correct colors is important, you may want to go get tested by your local eye doctor. Such jobs include designers, artists, and even electricians.
