DODMERB Optometrist Exam

[ow_fish]

I recently went to the dodmerb eye exam and had trouble with the test described as follows: I was given dark glasses and a board containing 10 rectangles, each with 3 circles inside them, and was asked to identify which of the 3 circles in each rectangle was "raised" or appeared different. Does anyone know what this test is designed to measure?

That is the depth perception test

Thanks- do you know if that is potentially disqualifying, or may just prohibit me from certain military jobs?

I am not sure, but I'm sure Mr Mullen will be here soon and can give you an accurate answer

My daughter had a similar experience when she took that part of the test, and was slightly concerned, but passed! Try not to worry

Found your post after my son failed the depth perception as well as part of the AROTC scholarship exam. All other portions were fine. Is that a concern for DQ?
