Ishihara Color Test Books are widely used pseudoisochromatic plate tests for screening congenital color vision deficiencies, especially red-green deficiencies. Each plate contains a pattern of colored dots that form a number, symbol, or tracing path. The figure may be clearly visible to individuals with normal color vision, while appearing difficult to see, invisible, or different to individuals with certain color vision deficiencies.

The Ishihara test is commonly used to help identify red-green color vision deficiencies, including protan and deutan types. Depending on the edition, plates may include numerals, symbols, or tracing paths, making certain versions more suitable for younger patients or individuals with limited reading ability.

Available in multiple plate-count editions, the Ishihara books allow professionals to choose the version best suited for their screening needs. Shorter editions are convenient for quick screening, while larger editions provide a more complete series of plates for expanded evaluation and classification.

Available Editions:
10 Plate, 14 Plate, 24 Plate, and 38 Plate versions

Note: Proper lighting and test administration are important for accurate results. Follow the instructions included with each book. Contact our Customer Service Team, if interested in bulk pricing.

Which Ishihara Book Should I Choose?

10 Plate Edition: A compact screening option that uses symbols and tracing paths rather than standard number-only plates. This version may be helpful when testing young children or individuals with limited reading ability.

14 Plate Edition: A concise version for quick color vision screening. This edition includes a combination of number plates and tracing plates and is commonly used when a shorter test format is preferred.

24 Plate Edition: A more complete screening edition. This version includes number plates for standard red-green color vision screening and additional tracing plates that may be useful for patients who cannot reliably identify numbers.

38 Plate Edition: The most complete Ishihara edition. This version provides the broadest series of screening, classification, and tracing plates for a more expanded color vision evaluation.

In general, the shorter books are best for quick screening, while the 24 and 38 plate editions provide a more comprehensive test series.
