In general yes.

But you are not taking two things into consideration in this specific case:
*) We are both past the age when annual eye testing has become routine.
*) We are both veterans, with access to VA health care (and for people in our age groups, they are going to check our eyes annually, like it or not).

So in this specific case, there is no chance of alarming anyone, we know our own condition(s) for certain.

But it is possible that the color shadings brought about by normal aging changes had not been considered. A purely technical consideration, not a health care matter.
