I am colorblind. The residency to which I matched has a question asking about color blindness in the pre-employment physical. Is there anyway I could be disqualified from the position for this?
orthopedicsDon’t think so. What specialty ? A good friend of mine is a color blind general surgeon
I am red green color blind and in peds. All red light reflexes look white to me. Why I’m not going into gen peds!! Only other specialty I see this mattering is pathology (I had such trouble with that eosin stain)

...He was a different kind of doctorMartin Luther King was colorblind too. There's no way they should disqualify you from it
One of my attendings simply cannot see the pink of Ziehl-Neelson stains (AFB). Has to go off size and morphology alone and then ask someone else to confirm it’s pink.I had a colorblind pathology colleague. He did admit he had to work a lot harder to see eosinophils.
