Description Color vision (CV) testing is often used to assess severity of CV loss from acquired or genetic diseases or drug toxicities. The impact of; contrast sensitivity (CS) loss on the results of CV tests has not been extensively investigated. In this study, we used a model for CS loss to determine effect on scores of Ishihara and Hardy-Rand-Rittler (HRR) pseodoisochromatic plates, two commonly used CV tests.
