A method for administering a cone contrast color vision test to a patient using a computer, including displaying a first character in a color at a first contrast level on a display connected to the computer, receiving a first input signal from the patient via an input device that indicates whether the patient recognizes the first character, displaying a second character in the color at a second contrast level which is not equivalent to the first contrast level, receiving a second input signal from the patient that indicates whether the patient recognizes the second character, assigning a score related to a cone sensitivity of the patient to the color at the first and second contrast levels, storing the score in a storage device, and comparing the score to at least one previous score from the patient to calculate a progression of a cone sensitivity loss.
