Where to take a FALAN test in Boston

Question

Does anyone know where I could take a Farnswork lantern test in Boston ?

I already check the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and a few other ophthalmologists but they don't provide with such a test

I need to take that specific test to prove to the FAA that I can see the difference between green red and white.

Answer 1

If for flying, ask your local flight school which doctor does FAA medicals.

Answer 2

Have you checked with the New England College of Optometry's clinic? (I think it's the New England Eye Institute.) They're in Boston. As a teaching institution, they're pretty likely to have a number of random tests kicking around, potentially a Farnsworth. I'd give them a shout and see if they do specialized testing for colour vision, or if they know who does. (Mention that it's for the FAA; they may have an equivalency or another name for it or something.)

I will say though, it's not a common test to find, so it'd be pretty rare to find a optometrist or ophthalmologist who has one. Any chance you could ask some local aviation folk where they did theirs?
