Peer reviewedGawande, A.; And Others – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1992
This study of the effects of lenses of different colors on the visual abilities and comfort of 20 patients with retinal disease found that, in home trials, the critical issue was density more than color. Office tests of visual acuity and contrast sensitivity with colored lenses did not predict subjective benefit. (Author/JDD)

Peer reviewedJacobs, R. J. – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1990
To investigate whether screen color is an important variable in the prescription of closed circuit television (CCTV) systems, 16 adults with low vision were assessed on reading performance on white, green, and amber screens. When the screen luminance and contrast were equated for each CCTV, subjects' reading performance was unaffected by screen…

The study investigated the relationship between specific functional color deficits and performance of 32 visually impaired children either with or without blue/purple color deficits. Results of using two types of educational materials, either dittoed or photocopied, demonstrated increased errors by the children with color deficits in the dittoed…
