Duochrome test is for -
Duochrome test is based on the principle of chromatic aberrations. It helps in verifying the spherical correction subjectively. In it, the patient is asked to tell the clarity of the letters with red background visa- vis green background. To an emmetropic patient letters of both the colours look equally sharp; while to a slightly myopic patient the red letters appear sharper and to a slightly hypermetropic patient the green letters look sharper.
