AAMA CMA Practice Question

The Ishihara test is the appropriate method for evaluating color vision. It uses multiple plates with colored dots and numbers or patterns embedded within them. Individuals with normal color vision will see the numbers or patterns, while those with deficiencies may not identify them correctly. The Farnsworth Lantern Test and the Hardy-Rand-Rittler test are also used for color vision testing but are not as commonly administered as the Ishihara test. The Snellen chart is primarily used to assess visual acuity and not color vision, thus making it an incorrect choice for testing the patient's ability to differentiate colors.
