ABSTRACT

In three series of examinations, 3375 male preschool-age children and 93 adult normal trichromates were tested using the Velhagen Pflügerhaken charts. The authors recommend modifying the evaluation of the results slightly by introducing a "doubteful" category for children who make one mistake or who show hesitation and lack of assurance in interpreting the charts. Using this modified form of assessment, diagnoses of "probably achromatopic" and "doubtful" were made in 7.16% and 2.13% respectively of 1689 preschool-age boys. The failure rate during the test and the duration of the examination were age-dependent, and declined with increasing age from 4.15% to 0.45% and from 1.18 min to 0.59 min, respectively. Most mistakes were made with charts nos. 9, 3, and 5. The results of tests with Pflügerhaken charts are fully comparable with those of other internationally used tests for adults. They can be recommended for screening preschool-age children.
