The author presents an account on the results of examinations of colour vision in patients with ocular hypertension and open angle glaucoma using three tests according to Farnsworth-Munsell (100 Hue test, Roth's 28 Hue test, Lanthony's desaturated panel D-15). He proves significant deterioration of colour differentiation in groups of patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension as compared with a reference group and within the group. Although there is deterioration of colour differentiation in the entire spectrum, disorders in the blue-yellow and blue-green area predominate.
