[Importance, especially in aeronautics, of color perception tests under dynamic conditions. Study of a suitable experimental apparatus].

Following a review of the most recent opinion on the physiology of colour vision, a device for examining it in dynamic, i.e. real-life conditions is described. The apparatus consist of two projectors which flash two absolutely identical pictures on to the screen, one of them is upside down. It appears at fixed but adjustable intervals so that the exposure time of the intelligible image can be varied. Subjects were also controlled with Ishihara charts and Nägel anomaloscope. The results are compared and point to the higher sensitivity of the dynamic test to even slight degrees of dyschromatopsia.

Color Perception Tests

Screening of red-green defects of colour vision with pseudoisochromatic tests.

Fifty red-green defectives and 100 normal subjects were examined with the second edition of the Boström-Kugelberg (BK II, 1972) series and the Ishihara complete edition (1976) of pseudoisochromatic plates. The results are related to those obtained with the first edition of the Boström-Kugelberg test (BK I, 1944) and the Boström test (II B, 1950) and to the classification of defects obtained with the Nagel anomaloscope. The 50 red-green defectives were originally selected by using a combination of the BK I and II B tests. The normal subjects also, passed this preliminary test, as well as an examination with the Nagel anomaloscope. In the final examinations performed under standardized conditions, three red-green defectives passed both the BK II and the BK I test, while eight defectives passed the Ishihara test. Combination of BK II or BK I test with the Ishihara test does not improve the result. Only one defective (a borderline case of protanomaly) passed the separate II B test. Normal subjects were not classified as colour defectives with any of the four pseudoisochromatic tests used. All normal subjects passed both the BK II and the Ishihara test. Classified as suspected red-green defectives (one misreading made in standardized conditions) were five normal subjects with the II B test and one normal subject with the BK I test. In the second edition of Boström-Kugelberg series, the plates numbered 3, 5, 11, 16 and 18 are clearly less effective than respective plates of the first edition. Only the plates numbered 1 and 10 have markedly improved in the second edition. Red-green defectives made on average 0.54 misreadings per plate in the BK II test as compared with respective 0.62 in BK I, 0.69 in the Ishihara and 0.56 in the II B test.

Color Perception Tests

Aeromedical implications of the X-Chrom lens for improving color vision deficiencies.

A red contact lens (X-Chrom lens) worn on the nondominant eye by 12 color-defective subjects caused significant improvements on the Dvorine, Ishihara, and Hardy-Rand-Rittler pseudo-isochromatic color plate tests. Color vision scores on the Farnsworth Lantern, Color Threshold Tester, and Aviation Signal Light Gun were not improved. Minimal changes were found on the Farnsworth D-15 test, aeronautical chart color identification task, visual acuity, phoria, and stereoscopic depth perception. Control and color-defective subjects perceived a change in the path of a pendulum (Pulfrich test) when viewing through the X-Chrom lens or a monocular red filter. The X-Chrom lens may require extended wearing before its optimum effect becomes apparent.
