The Farnsworth-Munsell (FM 100-Hue) colour vision test is one of the few clinical tests capable of detecting both red-green and blue-yellow colour vision defects, and it is one of the few "in-the-field" tests that provides assessment of general colour discrimination ability. Unfortunately, scoring of the test is time consuming and subject to many errors. These problems have prompted several clinicians and researchers to develop custom software packages that offer basic and specialized test analyses. However, custom software is unnecessary for basic FM 100-Hue scoring.
