restricted JAA Class 1 at Gatwick

hi guys,
I've just got back home from Gatwick.
I went there for an initial class1 but with great delusion I've not passed it completely.Everything was fine but I had some trouble during the color vision tests. I missed 3 imageson the ishihara test and i did some mistakes during another test (the name of which doesn't come in my mind right now) where I had to call the colors of some extremely small dots, which were supposed to be red green or white.
Well, i've been issued a restricted class 1 and the ophtalmologist told me to make further tests called "Nagel anomaloscope" and "spectrolux". though,they can't be made in the Uk and he suggested me to go to Switzerland, Germany etc.
for those who already went through them,are they more difficult than the ones in Gatwick? Do you think I couldnt pass them?
But what's more important, where should I go and get tested?Do you have any specifical addresses?
Thank you so much, I will be grateful to anybody who's going to help mein this.

hi guys..., I understand this might be hard to be answered but...I hope somebody around here can help me.
the docs from the CAA told me that the Nagel anomaloscope and the spectrolase tests can only be done in Germany and Switzerland.
which one do you suggest me to go for?
Are they harder than the ones they do in Gatwick?
I really hope some of you can help me, thank you

There is a very large thread on this forum about colourvision with lots of good contacts and advice in it, I recommend you have a look there!
