Advances in Color Vision Testing

Color vision testing has undergone significant facelift with ongoing developments enhancing accuracy, efficiency, and accessibility. The introduction of computer-based color vision tests has allowed for more standardized administration and scoring, reducing subjectivity. Advances in molecular genetics have led to a better understanding of the genetic basis of color vision deficiencies. Genetic testing can now identify specific gene mutations associated with various types of color blindness. Additionally, this chapter looks at the mobile applications and web-based tests that allow individuals to perform color vision assessments remotely, facilitating screening in diverse settings.
