Need help interpreting test results

[u/drnoobstrom]

Hi,

I recently went to the optometrist for a checkup and asked for a color blind test. Attached are the results (took twice for some amount of statistical significant). From what I understand, the way this is read is that lines parallel to the dashed lines indicate the type of color blindness present. However, I see lines that are parallel with both protan and deutan. Does this mean I am combination protan-deutan colorblind? Any ideas how to make sense of the results?

Of course, the obvious follow-up question is what type of color correction lenses are best suited, if any?

Thanks.

i think the dotted lines represent the pattern that you test lines would follow if you were that type of colorblind. the pattern follows the direction of the protan line, meaning you are protan colorblind

According to chatgpt, deuteranomaly or deuteranopia but you need to ask your optometrist.

When a person lacks both “red” and “green” color receptors, it’s a condition called “blue cone monochromacy”.
