Thirty-six male patients with a diagnosis of chronic alcoholism were detoxified and color vision tests were performed on day 4, 11, and 32 of their abstinence on an inpatient basis (Ishihara color plates, Nagel anomaloscope, three color-matching tests according to Farnsworth). Of the 36 patients, 47.2% manifested color vision deficiencies. The frequency of congenital red/green defects (11.1%) and a ratio of 3:1 deutan/protan defects showed no significant difference from the incidence in the normal population. In 36.1%, manifest acquired color vision deficiencies were diagnosed. Within the course of withdrawal, a marked improvement of these disturbances could be proved. The degree of the disturbance seems to correlate with the severity of withdrawal symptoms, but seems to be unrelated to acute toxic effects of alcohol, nicotine, or medication.
36名被诊断为慢性酒精中毒的男性患者接受了戒酒治疗,并在戒酒的第4天、第11天和第32天在住院部进行了色觉测试(石原色盲测试图、内格尔色盲检查镜、根据 Farnsworth 进行的三项颜色匹配测试)。在这36名患者中,47.2%表现出色觉缺陷。先天性红/绿色缺陷的发生率(11.1%)以及绿色盲/红色盲缺陷3:1的比例与正常人群的发病率相比无显著差异。36.1%的患者被诊断为明显的后天性色觉缺陷。在戒酒过程中,可以证明这些障碍有明显改善。障碍程度似乎与戒酒症状的严重程度相关,但似乎与酒精、尼古丁或药物的急性毒性作用无关。
