Developed in 1999, the ColorCorrection System™ is a unique, customized system of tests and filters for a systematic approach to color vision correction. Using over 25 color vision tests and specialized optical filters, Dr. Thomas Azman designs individualized tinted lenses — as soft contact lenses or eyeglasses — calibrated to each patient’s specific wavelength deficiency. The system provides guaranteed results on the Ishihara Color Plate Test, the Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT), the Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT), and the Farnsworth D-15 Color Vision Test, with a 100% success rate on the Ishihara since 1999.

The ColorCorrection System™ is completed in a single all-day appointment. During this visit, patients undergo a complete and comprehensive eye exam, a full color vision examination and evaluation, and 25 different color vision tests. Using the results of this extensive evaluation, Dr. Azman determines the exact wavelength of light needed to design and prescribe each patient’s custom color corrective lenses — contact lenses or glasses — that are guaranteed to pass the Ishihara Color Plate Test, the Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT), the Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT), and the Farnsworth D-15 Color Vision Test. Patients leave the same day with their lenses.

The ColorCorrection System™ provides guaranteed results on four professional color vision tests: the Ishihara Color Plate Test, the Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT), the Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT), and the Farnsworth D-15 Color Vision Test. These are the most widely required color vision tests used by employers and licensing boards across law enforcement, military, aviation, railroad, maritime, and other industries.

The Ishihara Color Plate Test is the most widely used color vision test in the world and the international gold standard for color blindness screening. It consists of a series of plates containing numbers or patterns embedded in a field of colored dots. People with normal color vision can read the numbers easily, while those with color vision deficiency cannot. It is required by many employers and licensing boards in law enforcement, military, aviation, railroad, maritime, and other industries. The ColorCorrection System™ has achieved a 100% success rate on the Ishihara Color Plate Test since 1999.

The Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT) is a computerized color vision test that measures the sensitivity of each type of cone in the eye — red, green, and blue — separately. It is considered one of the most sensitive and precise color vision tests available and is used by the military, aviation authorities, and other agencies requiring accurate color vision assessment. The ColorCorrection System™ guarantees patients will pass the Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT).

The Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT) is a digital color vision assessment that presents pseudoisochromatic plates on a calibrated monitor. It is used by military branches, law enforcement agencies, and other organizations to screen for color vision deficiency with a high degree of accuracy and consistency. The ColorCorrection System™ guarantees patients will pass the Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT).

The Farnsworth D-15 is a color arrangement test in which patients arrange 15 colored caps in order of hue. It is used to identify the type and severity of color vision deficiency and is required by a number of industries including aviation, maritime, and railroad. It is a more advanced test than the Ishihara and is often used when a more detailed assessment of color discrimination is needed. The ColorCorrection System™ guarantees patients will pass the Farnsworth D-15 Color Vision Test.

Colormax serves patients of all ages with a range of color vision needs. The majority of patients — approximately 80% — come because they need to pass a required color vision test for a job or career, such as law enforcement, military, aviation, railroad, or maritime. About 15% come because they want the best possible color vision for their profession, even though their job does not require passing a formal color vision test. The remaining patients come simply to experience better color vision in everyday life, with no job or test requirement. This includes adults and children of all ages, though career and test-related cases are by far the most common.

Anyone diagnosed as color blind, color deficient, color confused, Deuteranopia, Red-Green color blind, Tritanopia, or Blue-Yellow color blind can benefit. The ColorCorrection System™ guarantees results on the Ishihara Color Plate Test, the Rabin Cone Contrast Test (RCCT), the Waggoner Computerized Color Vision Test (CCVT), and the Farnsworth D-15 Color Vision Test.

Yes. The ColorCorrection System™ is available for patients of all ages, including children. Color-Corrective Lenses can reduce the academic challenges colorblind children experience at school when faced with color-coded learning and teaching materials such as maps, graphs, blocks, and crayons.
