Colour vision as a diagnostic aid.
The minimum requirements for a reliable study of (acquired) defects of colour vision have been formulated by Verriest. Taking these minimum requirements as a guide, about 200 patients were selected. For the differential diagnosis of disorders of the retina and the optic nerve the determination of the neutral zone and examination with the anomaloscope are important. This is true for both red-green and blue-yellow defects.
