Which makes me nervous cause thats more accurate to what its like at sea. Thanks! but see thats the thing, I’ve passed the Ishihara test but i just barely passed it, and then i took the farnsworth lantern test which is this one… Īnd i failed the farnsworth one pretttty hard. I am not sure at what level you will be accepted or denied.

If you can’t pass that then hopefully you will get some other suggestions. It is a booklet form to assess color blindness. Go to your family doctor or clinic and ask for the color blind booklet. Would i be the only 3rd mate who has trouble with this? And if thats the case should i pick a new career while its not too late? Or is it not a big deal.ĭon’t go to the eye doctor for color blind test. Is this a big problem? Im not sure now with all the technology such as ecdis whether you need to solely rely on tiny dots of color you see on the horizon. I got an “acceptable” on a coast guard accepted test, then failed another type of color eye test. im not all out colorblind but i do have trouble with the greens and reds of lights on the horizon. i have NO trouble identifying colors around me, i know the grass is green, sky is blue, and stop lights dont give me any trouble. So when i got home i went to the eye doctors and found out that im slightly colorblind with reds and greens when it comes to identifying them at far distances.

Ok so im a deckie and just finished my freshman year at a maritime academy, but while i was on the training cruise i noticed i had trouble identifying the colors of the ships lights on the horizon.
