I cannot pass the Ishihara test. I got my original Class 1 through the lantern test as well.

EK does not accept the lantern test however.

During the initial medical in Dubai (final day of interview) I took the new type of colour test at the EK clinic.

I can't recall the name of the test but you watch coloured dots on the screen against a changing background.

The dots move towards a corner - You then press the corresponding button to indicate which way the dot moved.

This covers me for life with the GCAA, though frustratingly they still make me try the Ishihara test each medical renewal.

Edit: it's called a CAD test
