    How to get a Colorlite color blind glasses


    Adapting to your color blind glasses

    When first put on, the lenses may make the environment appear to have a strong reddish (or other color) tint to it. For example, white would look red as opposed to truly white.

    Naturally, the eyes adjust to this color imbalance after wearing the lenses for 90 -120 seconds. White is then seen as white again, and color constancy is rebalanced.

    This is known as chromatic adaptation and is an important part of the color blindness correction process. This video demonstrates the process by which chromatic adaptation takes place and knowing when it is complete.

    Color Vision Deficiency

    Sight is our most important sense. 90% of all information is received by sight, 5% by hearing, 2% by touch, 2% by taste and 1% by smell.

    A normal human eye sees three colors: red, green and blue. All other colors are the result of a mixture of varying amounts of red, green, and blue. When a person has Color Vision Deficiency, one or more of the three primary colors is not detected correctly.

    The lack of information received due to color blindness slows down, or prevents, comprehension. The lack of comprehension creates a slower reaction time to the information and generally lowers a person's quality of life.

    8% of men and .5% of women have Color Vision Deficiency (CVD), also known as color blindness. There are approximately 32.6 million CVD men in the United States, Japan and Western Europe.

    Children with Color Vision Deficiency often struggle at school. They have trouble learning their colors, completing color-by-number assignments, understanding color coded graphs and maps, etc. In addition, they’re often teased by classmates for having trouble with these simple assignments.
