In 1877 he introduced the eponymous Stilling'schen color plates, a number of pesudo - isochromatic plates, which were used for diagnostic support in studies of color blindness or color blindness. These were always - inter alia Ernst Hertel and Karl Velhagen - improved so that they are meanwhile known as Stilling - Hertel - color plates or Stilling Velhagen - color plates and today almost exclusively as Ishihara color plates ( after the Japanese ophthalmologist Shinobu Ishihara ).
