I agree with you Nym. Perhaps that's part of the test:wink: It's like there is something in your memory that says "you've already shown me this and there was nothing then, why are you showing me again?".
Lassar, The standard specified by Metrolink for the medical is the same as network rail which is Normal Colour Vision determined by getting no more than 3 Ishihara plates wrong. If you are borderline, as your optician says, then make sure you are well rested before the day of your medical.
They may vary the sequence as the plate series I was tested with presented the Red/Green deficiency set first. These contained some where I just couldn't see the number and others where I saw a different number to the ones that a normal vision person sees. The blue set were fine. I know that...
Nym, thanks for that. Been doing quite a lot of research into test protocols and discovered that the RSSB recognise the short comings of the current protocol and are looking at the alternatives such as those used by the CAA for pilots and TfL for tube drivers.
Anybody know what TfL use for...
Got my result today. Failed the Ishihara test for colourblindness. If you get more than 3 test plates wrong it's a no go for drivers.
Lassar, I hope you fare better and get my training slot.
