    Hi guys,

    I’m new here so not sure if I’ve posted this correctly!

    I’m looking some information (if anybody has some) about the colour vision test that is done during the medical. I have a slight colour blindness and worried this could cause a waste of hard work trying to get to that point! Does anybody know what test they use?

    many thanks

    Hey, I don’t know for sure because I haven’t gotten that far before but the standard colour test is the Ishihara Test (coloured dots making up numbers). There are websites like Enchroma that have the tests and will give you an idea (not a diagnosis) of where you are. PSNI website states that severe colour deficiencies are not allowed so technically speaking if you have a mild/moderate colour deficiency you should be okay but it’s down to what OH define as severe
