Hi

I have served in the RN for 22 years and hoping to become an engineer in the merchant.
Colour blindness has never been a problem for me and never been picked up.
(i know from school that i was told i had slight colour blindness)
I had a check with my local Optician and failed the ishihara colour test she then carried out a city university colour test (a different book) and passed.

Does anyone know if the city university test is valid for MCA eng1 cert ?
Would a MCA doctor allow me to do the city university test ?

Many Thanks
A very worried engineer

sorry if i have wasted anyones time but have managed to answer my own question !!

Yes the MCA will accept city university test for engineers but NOT for deck.

Hope this info is of use to anyone else reading these threads.
