How is it that children could not take colour blind tests?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Who said so ?: Children under school age do not all have the level of understanding to do the standard ishihara plates to screen for color deficiencies.Those that are older do. It is available (i can do it ) but seldom requested. I don't believe i've had more than 1 or 2 requests in 3 decades.
