Hi,
     I am planning to get a job as operations engineer , I am a chemical engineer with quite a bit of experience. So the interview is a done and dusted thing. But I have partial red-green colorblindness and would like to know if color vision screening is done at the GAMCA medical test in India. I read that the tests are repeated once we enter Kuwait, can anyone tell me I they got screened for color blindness in Kuwait GCC?
    The place where I am employed at present accepts color correcting contact lenses for color blindness, can any one tell me if GAMCA approves also? Thanks a lot

Hi, did the doctor at GAMCA Delhi specifically screen you for color blindness?, Did he give you any reasons for the unfit report?

apap35

usually most centers do not test for colour vision.
Did u already inform them?
Get a new date and do it at different center.
do not inform your problem.
u ll clear it.
Best luck

No, Color Blindness test is not done in GAMCA India.
Not in Kuwait as well.

not specifically but technician took this as normal test through ishiara plate with eye vision test. I was successfully read 2 to 3 alphabets but not much number. he written on paper ( C V defective). when paper goes to doctor thn he  told me u cant go. u have color blindness but he was passing those people who going on labor category visa. Un fortunately he discourage me that u cant go with this. I felt he was not a good person. brake my all dreams and desires. eventhough colorblindness test did not done in gulf also.

but fortunately manger told me I will not update ur status online, so u can take appointment after 21 days.

my tension is if I book another appointment than again same center has come than again doctor will fail me,

Pls suggest where I cn go for this.  pls pls pls help me, this is my fist chance to go abroad.

Sir  I have a doubt regarding red green colour blindness.  Iam planning to go Qatar as driver. IAM waiting for their medical in India.  when I did premedical test I felt some difficulty to read ishihara chart. I have read 2,3 numbers correctly, some partially correct like that of 10numbers they shown. Reading is perfect .But I can understand colours if it is shown in another chart. Can u please reply me on whatsapp +***. Plsss
