Rodolfo,

Failing ishihara under jaa or EASA rules means you would have to pass another colour vision test to be allowed to fly at night or have a commercial.
Google the Colour Vision Defective Pilots Association (CVDPA).

Did you know colour vision isn't actually required to fly planes safely. it's just a thing they have always tested for and protected just to maintain the standard. Years back you couldnt fly commercially if you needed glasses as you were considered unsafe!

OOW
