title: [The effect of combined iodine treatment in Bad Hall on the color perception of patients].
abstract: After taking a cure with iodine treatments in Bad Hall (Upper Austria), patients with eye diseases repeatedly report improvements in their color vision. They state that colors are once again "more saturated, richer, and more distinct." These statements were checked using the Farnsworth Panel D-15 dicotomous test and the Lanthony desaturated 15 Hue test. The analysis of the results showed that there is indeed a statistically significant improvement in color vision after the cure. The spontaneous observations of the patients were therefore confirmed by the study.
