So, I'm color blind. Red-Green... Super Protan (if you know the term).

Been contemplating getting those Enchroma sunglasses I've heard about and read about, but was always skeptical that they would do anything.

My wife got me a pair for father's day... and OMG... what I've been missing for 50 years.

I never knew Red was that bright and colorful!!!!

Red cars are so bright instead of dark red or what I would call brown unless i was really close to it and it was bright.

Our blinds are white. Not really very colorful but they go well with the house decor.

No, but there was an episode of Brain Games about Color blindness... and they put up one of those color blind tests that only I could see the shape, but none of my family could.

It makes sense... the deutans are the gypsies of the color blind. they stick with their own.

Man, I wanted to fly F16s when I was little. I figured I could always cheat the color-blind exam.
Wasn't until Sunday when I realized how much color I was missing out on.

If it works for you like it works me, I think so.

RED is so vibrant bright.

They have a 60-day no hassle return policy.

I just remember that scene from Little Miss Sunshine. I could almost feel his pain, even though I have nearly perfect vision.

I can no longer drive a school bus ( used to coach) bc of stupid color blindness tests for CDL License. I understand why you need to be able to see dots in a circle on a page to safely drive a bus.... I mean otherwise you might just drive off a cliff or run through a stop light

at night, i have a hard time telling the color of a blinking yellow/red/green light. Certain times it is a struggle for me if I can't see the position of the light to know the color. Damn it, the color doesn't help me

You can't cheat the USAF colorblind test.
Missed 12 of 14 of the dots. One is a gimme that everyone gets correct. I guessed lucky on one more.
After you fail that one, you get to take the other one.
Two lights (like Christmas tree bulbs), one over the other. You stand ten feet away. He told me they would be yellow, green, or red. He spun the dial and I was to say the top color, then the bottom.
I missed 12/14 on that one too. Two lucky guesses.

That's when I was told I'd never pilot fighters.

Yep... the bad ones were the small town intersections on highways where they just have a single blinking light by itself (i.e. not a 3 light signal where red is always on the left or on the top)

Most of them are Yellow blinking to let you know to slow down, but sometimes they are red blinking. Have to check for stop signs.

i see the green and reds but cannot make out the words or letters if there even are any. That may be the joke. If so, die.

I tried editing with different filters. There are three lines of words. The last line is COLORBLIND and the second line ends with THE. Other than that, I can't read it.

Although I'm pretty good at seeing primary and secondary colors, I can't make anything out in this pic. I also have a really hard time differentiating between really dark brown, dark navy, and black.

Trying to read these things at the eye doctor make me feel like a giant idiot. I see the colors. My brain sees them as jumbled up though.
