Recently I have faced some questions from a aspirant who has a problem of colour-blindness, he was asking me the chances of his getting into armed forces without any problem. Though the problem of colour blindness is a serious, it may post a rejection during medicals. Some of the candidates are not aware of this problem and they may have colour blindness which they have never felt because they have never faced any problem in their normal life.
Here we are going to talk about what colour blindness is and its effects in medical examination after SSB interview:
Q1: What is colour blindness?
A : It is the inability to differentiate between certain colours, due to absence of colour sensitive pigments in the cone cell of the retina.
Q2 : How can I check the colour blindness?
A : If you face the problem in differentiating certain colours, then you should consult an ophthalmologist. Though I am posting some tests below to check the colour blindness, you can go through it and post the results in comment box below. I am sure majority of you will not face any problem.
Results:
1 Normal eye:
| Left | Right | |
| Top | 25 | 29 |
| Middle | 45 | 56 |
| Bottom | 6 | 8 |
2. Red- Green Colour Blind:
| Left | Right | |
| Top | 25 | Spots |
| Middle | Spots | 56 |
| Bottom | Spots | Spots |
Post your results in the comment box, consult an ophthalmologist if you find some problem.
