Abstract
FM 100-hue test patterns of 80 healthy and 61 diseased eyes were visually evaluated and the results compared with the computerized assessment of Knoblauch (1985). The 4 parameters (mean error, amplitude, axis orientation and modulation) make the diagnoses more objective and quantitative. The visually diagnosed 4 main groups of acquired color defects in the FM 100-hue test (BY defects, RG defects, anarchic and achromatic findings) can be well distinguished. Within these main groups the differential diagnoses between the subgroups (BY, BY/scotopic, BY/RG and BY/RG/scotopic; RG, RG/scotopic, RG/BY and RG/BY/scotopic) can be made only partially. Therefore, visual assessment of FM 100-hue test results should not be dispensed with. It is useful for diagnosing concomitant deficiencies and scotopisation.
