Abstract The current study reports on a novel computerised colour vision test employing static and dynamic stimuli. The aim of the study was to assess if static and dynamic stimuli result in comparable chromatic discrimination thresholds when participant’s age is taken into account. Participants (n = 20) were 21 to 77 years old, had normal colour vision and no history of any eye disease. They all participated in two sessions estimating chromatic sensitivity with static and dynamic stimuli, respectively, with six directions in colour space varying either along the red-green (RG) or yellow- blue (YB) directions. We found no significant differences in chromatic thresholds along a tritan axis obtained with static and dynamic stimuli. However, along protan and deitan axes, chromatic thresholds were lower if estimated using static stimuli than those estimated using the dynamic stimuli. As anticipated, chromatic sensitivity decreased with age and with greater chromatic sensitivity loss along the tritan confusion line. Research results suggest that differences between chromatic thresholds measured with static and dynamic stimuli become more apparent with increasing age of study participant.
