Did you know that there are now sunglasses that can help correct colorblindness? These can be lifechangers. You may have seen videos of people trying these on and seeing color for the first time. These can be tearjerkers, to say the least.
Colorblindness is very rare. Only about one person in every 33,000 is affected. It’s even more rare for people to see no color at all. Most colorblind people can see color: they just may not be able to distinguish between different shades and tones. For most, this doesn’t affect their vision, and will have minimal impact on their lives. However, there are situations where it can be problematic, such as with driving or design.
The sunglasses block specific light wavelengths, which helps separate the colors and increase contrast between them. This in turn helps the cones in the eye get stronger and better at distinguishing colors. Unfortunately, these glasses don’t work on every type of colorblindness.
If you think you are colorblind, reach out to your Marysville, WA eye clinic for more information. Or click this website Grandview Optometry.
