Impairment of colour vision in patients with ocular hypertension and glaucoma. With special reference to the "D and H color-rule".

Abstract

Disturbances of colour perception, often of a tritanopic nature, have been described in glaucomatous patients (Fishman, I973; Grutzner and Schleicher, 197I; Lakowski, Bryett, and Drance, I972; Verriest, I964). The present paper describes a new method of assessing such deficiences using the D and H Color-Rule (Hemmendinger and Davidson, I967).
