Eye Health QOTD: Are you Color Blind and have you tried enchroma color blind glasses? What do you think?

[@ningguang7203]

Yes and haven't. ..

[@jofipps376]

Yes, I’m red/green colorblind and I haven’t tried them. I’m a female and sewing is a hobby I enjoy. I’ve often wondered how those glasses would help me. Maybe one day, God willing, I’ll get to see what everyone else is seeing.

[@approachinglimits]

I’m colorblind. Just got truly diagnosed 2 days ago. I have Mild Deuteranomalia. I was talking to my optometrist and he owns his own glasses store. I mentioned them to him and he is now interested in stocking them. Never really trusted the online tests.

[@jofipps376]

RussianSpy101 I’m 72 Yrs old and I was truly diagnosed at 20 years of age when I was trying to qualify for a job with General Electric. I had noticed while traveling, my Mom would comment on the pretty red peppers in the fields and also the trees full of red apples. I would turn all the way around in the back seat looking for what she saw and was puzzled as to why I couldn’t see it. She actually carried the same gene as my Dad’s red/green color blindness. That’s all I ever was told the name of the problem was back then. I may never get to try on a pair of the glasses but it sure does sound like a treat! I had heard that not all people with color blindness would be helped with the glasses so I assumed I was one of the unfortunate ones and never got my hopes up. But since watching this video I’m excited about the prospects of seeing what most other people see. However, as you know we see colors, but some are camouflaged and we have problems with the different shades of some colors. It makes me unsure of what I think I see sometimes, especially when buying clothes or trying to match fabrics with thread etc. Regardless of if I do get to try the glasses on or not, I’m grateful I can see and also that I can see most of the beautiful colors in our world that God blessed us with. I hope you can get the glasses and have fun with all you see.🌻

[@maxgeorge8746]

Thank you very much for the video. I placed a comment a few weeks back on wanting to see something about this. Yes, I am color blind. Thanks for the info. Just in time for Christmas.

[@Blue_Azure101]

Had a friend who discovered he was color blind after a scene in a movie where there were blood on the toilet. He thought it was poop. Then that’s when we realized he had trouble with color red.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Hahhaha I dont know why this made me laugh.

[@claudioestevez61]

Holly shit

[@MajorBilly]

Fun fact - I always wondered what they were seeing that triggered such emotion, but assumed I could never know. Then I got cataract surgery. Wow. A month later and it still amazes me how colors pop out.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

I hear that so much! Glad the surgery went well. Which colors do you notice the most? Blue? Yellow?

[@MajorBilly]

@@DoctorEyeHealth Blue is most noticeable, and regaining full blue made whites much brighter.

[@jameslastimoso5404]

The feeling is the same when I got my first eye glasses i didn't know the world is this much wonderful that i can see from a far and i can see colors more vibrant and a perfect HD scenery's.

[@jazzhandsdan207]

@ as red-green colorblind dude and enchroma user I can say that this is entirely false. I know every color while wearing these and discover ones I haven’t been able to see before. Absolutely life changing. Stop contributing to the age of misinformation.

[@IamSubbingToEveryoneWhoSubToMe]

Cataract surgery is a procedure to remove the lens of your eye and, in most cases, replace it with an artificial lens. Normally, the lens of your eye is clear. A cataract causes the lens to become cloudy, which eventually affects your vision.

[@Chickendinguss]

According to every color blind test I've taken I have strong protanopia, but still see everything as pink. They definitely help me see reds and oranges, and it was really cool to see red for what it is, but the sky being pink is very weird lol

[@rupis409]

Same for my husband. Maybe do you know what is the difference between simple red lense glasses and enchroma? :)

[@quintunesp]

Thank you for thia video, I imagined if anyone had the idea of filming throught this glasses, so the non colorblinded people could understamd a little of what those lenses do, it was amazing to see how it kind of inceeased the contrast of colors

[@brookasaurus1282]

Ok but can we talk about YOUR eyes? They are mesmerizing 👀💙

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Thank you!

[@MakeAMadMan]

I have red and green colour blindness and seeing through those glasses made a difference 😱

[@Goblin-King-]

Doctor please make a video covering visual snow !, I've watched your migrane Aura video and was impressed with it, Also the general public needs to know about it more

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Wow! you and a few other viewers are reading my mind! I wrote out a video on that topic over the weekend. Hopefully coming soon!

[@Goblin-King-]

@@DoctorEyeHealth Thank you so much, it would mean alot to us suffering from this condition :)

[@KeithRickards]

Thanks for the video and your review. Much appreciated. I have Strong Protan Colourblindness. I have considered these as I used to have filtered glasses about 25 years ago with little to no result so interested in seeing how the technology has come on. However the reason I won’t buy these are the following. 1. Within Red - Green colourblindness there are varies types and degrees of colour deficiency so the chances of working well for mine is unknown. (Great there are 60 days return option) 2. I live in the UK. I don’t need sunglasses. We don’t get Sun. Standard glasses without prescription would be the option I would like but then there is the issue of the filter. 3. The ads irritate the hell out of me. People don’t suddenly see colour. This reaction of ‘I can see!’ Is bothersome. We can see colour it’s just washed out and difficult to distinguish. It feels like ads made by people without colour deficiency dramatised for other people without colour blindness. I know there’s a difference between the two wordings and funny that it’s the inaccurate one that is used as the norm. 🤣

[@The-LSTV]

They are a total scam. Thank you for supporting people who scam others with a disability.

[@pogmonke5217]

I'm colour blind and can confirm that they're not a scam.

[@The-LSTV]

@@pogmonke5217 That is not physically possible - color blindness is not curable without surgery, and a pair of color filters can not make you start magically see or distinguish colors that your eyes are not capable of processing. It (may) only, in some cases, help see a difference between 2 colors that you couldnt before, but at the cost of a lot of other colors blending even worse. They do *not cure* color blindness and do not make you see new colors. In no way they make you see the original colors, not even close, and them trying to make it sound like that is a total scam to me and is just a plain and shameless rip-off of color blind people, and should not be taken seriously. In the very least, if not a scam, they are a blatant false advertising. All of the "reaction videos" have been proven to be 100% fake. I'm not kidding, look it up. Some of them have blatant proof of being faked (Especially the ones with the kid and balloons - the kid is literally reading the wrong colors that are written on the balloon, among other signs of it being fake. May influencers sponsored by Enchroma that faked their reaction (like Logan) have later admitted to it being faked and stated that there is actually no difference.) In most cases, those glasses make your color vision a lot worse, as it's just a pink filter, making colors look way too red, and with that a lot of colors blend even for not color blind people. It's just physically not possible for a plastic filter to make you see colors, when your brain/eye can not process them itself. That simply does not work. Note that this video is sponsored by Enchroma.

[@npmerrill]

The only scammy part is the price. They changed the way I see color - so they work, I guess - but the price is outrageous. They should be around $100, $150 at most. Isn’t 5x profit margin enough, Enchroma?

[@CyberwizardProductions]

They have lenses for all the types of colorblind disorders except mono - where you have no cones in your retina at all - and enchroma has a test. you want to take that first, it'll take you to the page with the correct filtering lens you need.

[@MCPeeBoy]

I am doing some research about these glasses. I looked up some articles as well as watched a lot of videos. After hunting for some DOIs and then jumping to sci-hub, it seems that researchers are fairly sceptical about these glasses. However, when I see people trying a pair of these I am really on a fence. I am getting fairly interested in fluorescent microscopy as well as just plain ol' painting with brush and oil paints, so being able to see colours would be heavenly.

[@mickaellyyanae2057]

Your videos are perfect. Great job! Please, make a video about amblyopia.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

SO SOON! I wrote it out over the weekend 😁 Thank you so much!

[@jdove6688]

I’m red/green deficient and received the Enchroma glasses as a gift. I was totally blown away. I used them in Bar Harbor Maine to view my “first” sunrise. There were ranges of emotions including sadness realizing all I have missed over the years. I wish they had bifocal readers so I could wear them more. I do take them on all outdoor trips. I do find I can’t wear them while driving as I get distracted by the colors passing by catching my eye

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Thanks for sharing! Very powerful

[@kirksingletary3788]

Yeah I was thinking about getting some and trying to drive but I wouldn't be able to focus. Sunrises/sunsets are something I wanna be able to see so bad. All I see is like an orangey yellow and then grey. Apparently theres pink in their somewhere

[@EdwinLaarz]

That is a reason I worry about getting a pair, how much have I missed.

[@kriticalthesquidd5411]

​@@EdwinLaarzYou really shouldn't I just watched a video before this one the glasses are all just a big scam the reason is you'd have to litteraly give yourself the "sensors" in your eye for the color

[@Roy-vk3jb]

You are just lying… the glasses do nothing (scientifically proven) but make everything purple and change some hues …

[@rhansen1969]

Great video! I am not color blind, nor do I know anyone who is. I have seen the facebook videoes you described about people being given a pair of these as a gift and getting a emotional reaction. I think the glasses are wonderful, but a little spendy for the average joe. However, I would buy them if I or someone I knew could benefit from them.

[@marcyvandenburg4760]

Great video! I learned a lot! I don’t have anyone in my family that I know is color blind but now I where to connect them if I learn of someone who is!

[@zoltoncxz5546]

Being colour blind has never bothered me (I'm STRONG Deutan) however I really like going outside, fishing, exploring etc. I have looked into these glasses a bit however nothings been very informative on how they actually work, this has convinced me to TRY them I feel. Thank you!

[@Bodu90]

Hello! I'm also strong deutan, can you share the impressions with the glasses? How are they, is realy that amazing?

[@IamJustJosh_]

I would also appreciate if you can share the outcome of this!

[@slambangwallop]

Colour vision and colourful balloons to celebrate! That's brilliant.

[@straylgk5497]

Just got some.. it feels like everything is more red.. kind of.. if you keep them on for a while things are more normal but red is very vibrant.. but the shocking thing for me was how much grey was taken away. Green against grey like a paved surface with grass growing from the cracks makes the green grass pop like nothing I've seen before.. it made me come to the conclusion that everything looks more green usually through my eyes so green is washed out

[@f.d.6667]

Amazing concept & a great video. However, I seriously doubt that they are actually anti-reflective. When you handled the glasses, there was a very pronounced reflection from the window and your light source and even the most basic contemporary vacuum-deposition AR coating would significantly reduce those. My guess is that the lenses have a sol-gel hard coating that's marketed as AR. There is however a coating that's improving transmission by 50% but that's not something I would spend money on... Still, the concept in itself is awesome!

[@janedavis1730]

My thoughts as an optician of over 2 decades. First, they are not safety lenses. Safety rating depends on several factors. Second, I'm really disappointed that you would present a paid promotion as an honest product review, especially for a company that has marketing practices that are questionable at best. I've always thought of your channel as a reliable source of information and if I'm being honest these kinds of shenanigans undermine your brand.

[@jimdevilbiss9125]

While teaching physics I had a color blind test for the class One senior student was sure that we were lying to him about there being a number inside the circle. I gave him a colored filter and he could see that there was a number. He put the filter in front of his eye and then removed it and put it back and there removed it. This went on for a long time each time saying No S - - -

[@LG-Musique]

Do you need special filters for this, or could you use any old coloured plastic like the wrapper from quality street chocolates? Lol. I’m a carrier of the colourblind gene and my 4 year old son has 50:50 chance of being colourblind. I noticed over the past few months that he’s occasionally mistaking greens, oranges, browns and red (which my colourblind Dad also gets muddled up), but with his age it could just be slip-ups with names of colours rather than seeing the colours differently. He’s extremely good with numbers though, so I thought I’d try and get him to do a colourblind test and he was getting some of the numbers wrong or saying he couldn’t see a number… again it could be his age, but after seeing your comment I’m wondering about “playing the number game” again but adding filters on the ones he gets wrong or can’t see a number

[@tomashworth542]

I've known I'm color blind most of my life. Took many tests showing this, including the one on the Enchroma website to determine type, what you need, etc. I was willing the pay the $ for the Enchroma glasses. Shipping was really fast and I was really excited that I'd be able to see a real difference in colors. HIGHLY disappointed. No appreciable difference in reds/greens except that it looks like I'm seeing them through dark glasses. Blues and purples were completely washed out - very, very pale compared to when I don't even have these Enchroma glasses on. I'm returning these. Maybe they work for some people, but they certainly didn't work at all for me - I see colors better with them off!

[@SebastyneAlphaSL]

I saw a guy who took quite a while to see with them; at first, he didn't see much difference. Then, he suddenly said the colors seemed to be "more separate" and eventually started seeing a huge difference, albeit not perfectly color accurate.

[@abdullahalhaddad626]

I am protan, red green colorblind and I am an artist. I have been tempted for years to get the indoor set so I can use color in my art. My work is monochromatic because of my eyes but I long for so much more. I was gifted an outdoor set a few years ago. They make the world look very vibrant, like a pixar movie. But I am not completely convinced they "correct" my sight or if they just enhance it. It gives things red hues that I don't think should have them (such as the sky during the day) or things that I know are white are pink with my glasses on (like snow). And, to my disappoint, I still cannot pass the colorblind test with them on. I am curious if anyone has tried the indoor set compared to the outdoor version they offer.

hey! I am back with yet another question, maybe you can help. I have blue green colorblindness, and I have "indoor" Enchroma glasses. In 2022 I will be thru hiking the entire 2200 miles of the Appalachian Trail. When I drive my indoor glasses aren't dark enough. Since I will be in the woods a lot I am considering just bringing my indoors, or do you think I should get the darker "outdoor" glasses, too? I am on the fence obviously because spending 400 more dollars will be hard between getting all my gear and saving up to be out of work to hike for 6 months. I use the indoor ones when I hike now and find myself squinting a bunch at peaks and water sources. I suppose I just want someone to guide my decision. Thanks (:

Love your review ! Great job !

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

[@nickloss2377]

I'm a "strong deuteran" (as my optometrist put it).. I heard about enchroma back when they were just a couple of guys working out of a lab in Berkeley. Back then only a handful of clinics offered their lenses (and only one in Canada). They didn't even have an online presence yet! Being colourblind has definitely hindered aspects of my life.. ie: being a cop, being a pilot etc.. but in other respects, I have learned to adapt. I do sound and lighting at a nightclub on the weekends (as a part time gig) and tbh the lighting console was a challenge to learn. but now I'm pretty good at creating a siiiick light show (even if I can't see half the colours! haha) the only thing still haven't been able to overcome is wiring for electronics. .. that's also a hobby of mine.. and identifying red wires from green wires is impossible on my own. but there is an app that helps me with that. I'm still hopeful to one day give the enchroma lenses a try. I heard a rumour that there was finally an optometrist in Toronto that had enchroma lenses for people to try first... even though the company has a great return policy, being across the border meant there would be a substantial (non-refundable) customs charge just to get them to try on. would have sucked if they ended up not even working for me 🤷‍♂️

[@joneyedoc]

Thanks for the info. Have you ever done an evaluation of the pinhole glasses and their claim to improve vision?

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

Yes, pinhole is nothing magical. we use them in clinic to determine if someone has vision loss that can be corrected through a refraction alone (and not a medical reason). I have picked up a pair of the pinhole glasses found online, they work like any other pinhole occluder but they give me motion sickness and don't improve vision the way people claim they do. I will perhaps do a review of those in the future.

[@tomwiles]

I have a red-green color deficiency. If I'm close enough, I can see the difference between red and green. If there is a red roof in the distance, I can make myself believe it is either red or green. If I look at the same roof through binoculars from the same location, I can easily tell it is red. If I go through the typical dot pattern color tests, the red-green deficiency is revealed. Additionally, I've always found it impossible to put a name to many pastel colors. The enchroma glasses might be worth it for me to check out.

[@bgingras05]

Did you ever try them out and if so did they work for you?

[@tomwiles]

@Brian Gingras Yes, I did buy a pair. They sort of work to help me pass the color blind dot tests, but not perfectly. When I first put them on it's sort of like looking through rose colored glasses. After a while my brain seems to adjust to a different color temperature and things look more normal. They make okay sunglasses.

I have an uncle that is color blind and he an artist. He was artist of the year in college. He had to read and learn what to mix. I really want him to be able to see so he can paint without us spending an hour trying to figure out what to mix to make blue not look brown.

I'm Green Red colour blind and have known since I was under 5 yrs old i'm 44 now and has defiantly had and affect on parts of my life, from simple things like playing Snooker or 9 ball pool to failing on job interviews due to c.b. test. guessing sometimes can fun though :) People are more appeasing with it more these days but theres always someone who questions what colour i see what colour i see what colour i see hahaha A friend mentioned these glasses to me and found this very informative video and learned loads..

Okay, so I either have deuteranomaly or protanomaly. Online tests all mostly consistently say I'm a mild deutan, however, I don't know for sure, and in terms of actual diagnosis, my eye doctor says I'm red/green color deficient (after I was tested recently) however, my insurance doesn't wanna pay for me to see a color vision specialist that'd be able to give me a more specific diagnosis, so sadly, I won't quite be able to know specifically what kind of enchroma glasses to try out, see if they do much or not. Funny story: I found out I'm mildly red/green color blind because I found out Larry Koopa is severely red/green color blind, so that peaked my interest in color blindness and I just took a color blind test for the fun of it online (enchroma actually), then it claimed I was a mild deutan which I was skeptical about, so I took the test at my eye doctor and I am, in fact, red/green deficient.

My friend has these, I tried them on and I could not believe my eyes, I’ve never seen green look so vibrant. I can see green outside like trees and grass, but the glasses made it look so amazing. I don’t believe I have any sort of color deficiency that I’m aware of but was wondering what your opinions are or if any of you had a similar experience

I suffer red / green differentiating difficulties. Can't use term blindness because it varies. But I do some sailing where differentiation between red and green buoys and particularly for me red and green navigation lights is very important. Are there glasses that would help for this? Thank you

[@nilartcom]

Did not work for me at all. It changed colors, sure. Some colors were more vibrant, sure. But on an A/B I was actually able to distinguish less colores with the glasses on than without them. In fact I started to see colors that were not (like white lights with a pink tint). I discovered that colorblind people tend to have better contrast sensitivity (because of the lack of color sensitivity) and the glasses were messing with that. I really wanted them to work and have that "new world" experience but it was a bit of a bluff.

I am colorblind. I bought the glasses. They gave me a headache and did nothing to help with my vision.

[@eolsunder]

well there are different types of colorblindness and of course it doesn't work for everyone due to a variety of factors, but im sure everyone is sorry that they didn't work for you. Some things i hear you can try. This is if you have red/green of course and not other types. Adjust the distance the lenses are from your eyes, see if there is a different distance that something shows up. Your cones/receptors might not register the changes in light at the small distance the glasses are from your eyes and maybe they need to be slightly further away or closer for that narrow vision to occur.

I have just purchased a pair of EnChroma glasses, I am waiting for them to arrive. I suffer from moderate deutan colour blindness. I will comment again once I receive them about if and how they worked. It should be in a week as I’m in Australia and they’ll take a while to get here. Fingers crossed they make me see things how I should be seeing them 🤞😎

Hi again! I received my EnChroma glasses! I have great news! My world has changed. I have seen things I have never seen before. A couple examples are I grow chillis and I can never tell when they are ripe, I can now see the change from green to orange to red! I have bushes out the front that have red in the leaves, I always thought they were dull green bushes! My house bricks are red not brown!😂 Reds are amazing, what I thought was a light brown is actually bright orange! I have purple flowers in another shrub, purple is actually so different to blue😂 I can now see that. Even the traffic lights are different, I always thought the red and orange ones were the same colour and the green is bright green not almost white! I also saw a sun rise for the first time. Absolutely stunning! Words can’t describe it, but it was blue and grey with a touch of yellow as I’ve always seen it 😂. I recommend these for anyone with colour blindness. I have post a few pics of what I can see now that I couldn’t before on my instagram @bhutburnz with a small description. Of what I used to see. I’m just amazed!

One very important point not mentioned is that these glasses do not "cure" color blindness. If you fail the "dot" test normally (can't see numbers), if you retake the test with Enchroma glasses on you will still not be able to see the numbers in the dot patterns.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

That is a very good point. I will bring that up in my future color vision videos

[@randomhuman1198]

their eyes are different-but people could prob make them for dogs if they did enough reserach

[@maczajsci7080]

nope - enchroma only works on anomalous trichromats and dogs are full dichromats - so no. They amplify differences between red and green so if you see no red and green at all - like dogs, they don't work

[@claudioestevez61]

If dogs have the green, red, and blue cones then maybe, otherwise, it is like asking if a blind person puts these glasses on will they see color. This only opens the gap between the colors.

Would these glasses work for someone who is a dichromat?? Thanks

Does everything you see have a red/pink tint to it when you wear the glasses due to the lens?

[@bhutburnz779]

Sadie B not that I can tell, it has allowed me to see red in everything that I always thought was brown. My fiancé who isn’t colourblind put them on and she said it puts a red tint on everything, but her eyes don’t need correcting

[@mtychngofhrt]

@@bhutburnz779 so when you look at a white wall it doesn't have a pink tint on it? Sorry to be triple checking here it's just that my father and my son are both colour blind and we did the Pilestone glasses and they could pass the colour blind tests as normal with the glasses on and came out as strong Duetan with them off but they returned them because it gave everything a red tint so it was like weird funhouse glasses...so I don't want to pay double for Enchroma if it's the same thing.

[@bhutburnz779]

Sadie B I don’t see a pink tinge looking at a white wall. But also these glasses don’t allow you to pass a colour blind test, these have allowed me to see reds and oranges amazingly when I used to see them as brown. I also was hesitant getting these glasses and did the colorblind test on their website at least a hundred times to make sure I was getting the right glasses. At the end of the day they can be returned if they do not work. They work for 4 out of 5 people

[@tinamartin1267]

My husband is color blind. I actually had him watch the part of this video, where you hold the glasses up to the dotted paper, and asked him if he could notice a difference....he said it made the colors brighter.....which surprised me cuz I didn’t think it’d work like that. I thought he’d have to put them on himself. So, is that right?....did it actually work for him through the video, as it would if he were to wear them himself? I was just curious and thought it was neat....if it can actually work that way 😉😁❤️

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

I honestly dont know! Colors on a digital screen are slightly different than in real life (there are patented colors that can only be created on a computer screen). But that does sound pretty cool! I wonder if you could make a computer screen filter out the same material?

[@bpark10001]

The light spectrum is largely "destroyed" by a trip through a camera/monitor. (There are many videos of this. The improvement is pure "moonshine"). If your husband saw ANY difference in the video,he will definitely see it with the glasses! Being colorblind, and seeing with the glasses is not the same as cranking up the color on a monitor. Get the glasses for your husband! Blow up the balloons, and be ready for a freak out! If he wears glasses for refraction, the ones offered by Enchroma (with prescription) are of the highest quality, especially if he needs progressive lenses.

[@tinamartin1267]

Brian Park I wish I could, dang it! Those glasses are expensive, from what I’ve looked up. Maybe some day....I would love to see his reaction to what colors actually look like!! And, no, he doesn’t wear/need regular corrective lenses for sight. Thank you for your sweet comment😊

[@akshafati808]

Did you get this glass? Did it work?

[@eolsunder]

I assume it depends. I think those with achromatopsia usually have cones and receptors that work fine, they aren't deficient or damaged like red/green colorblindness, etc. its just that the chemicals and molecular process of those visual cones doesn't work correctly, so probably the glasses wouldn't do anything because they only affect the wavelengths of light that can be seen, not the actual molecular chemical makeup of the cone's process to determine color.

If there's a store there and you can get to it I am sure they would be more than happy to demo the glasses for you. Afterall, how else are they going to sell them without letting people try them out.

[@JanPBtest]

Would be great if you did a review of the Colorlitelens glasses. Nobody (FAPP) seems to know about them in America and there are no video reviews I know of. I'm not associated with them in any way BTW, it's just that optics is a hobby of mine (I am a mathematician) and Colorlitelens approach is very different than Enchroma, it's based on a controlled hue adaptation, a bit reminiscent of how the orange mask worked on colour negative films - remember those? IOW instead of altering the spectrum reaching the eye (the Enchroma approach) they change the "baseline" of what constitutes neutral grey in certain way. When done right, subtracting this altered baseline results in a higher discrimination of "the difference", according to the research they did. Despite superficial similarity they seem very different than Pilestone which you're probably familiar with. Their web site is interesting, it even includes a tritanopia test.
