A Concise Manual for Color Vision Testing
New York, NY, January 24, 2014 --(PR.com)-- "Plates for Color Vision Testing," recently published by Thieme, is an easy-to-use manual that provides a simple and effective tool for detecting color vision deficiencies in any population. It features 32 color plates that use the principles of pseudoisochromasia (distinguishing numbers and letters on a color background) and pseudoanisochromasia (detecting characters of differing brightness on a color background) to assess and classify a wide range of disorders. The authors also provide practical information on administering the test and interpreting results, making the book essential for diagnosing color vision deficiency. The book includes a “cut-out E” for testing children and individuals who have difficulty reading or are unfamiliar with the alphabet.
For all ophthalmologists, optometrists, internists, technicians, and other specialists who need to evaluate an individual’s color vision for medical or occupational reasons, Plates for Color Vision Testing is an essential practice aid.
