Today I saw color for the first time
Enchroma has these glasses which allow the color blind to see color. People asked me to do a reaction video, so here it is:
So overall, from what I have gathered so far... My Yellow = Your Orange My Lime Green = Your Yellow My Traffic Light Green = Your White-Green My Green = A bunch of greens My Purple = Your Navy Blueish Purple My Brown = Your Red / Green

I stopped and chuckled a bit. I guess I've always taken just how green things are for granted. I've considered investing in a pair. I'm not colorblind, but I've heard that even non-colorblind people can see a large enhancement in color. It'd be a cool both for novelty sake and also for the various benefits of enhanced vision contrast.

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
I had no idea you were colorblind, Xiz. I'm very glad you can see all colors now, it must be quite literally a revolution of sorts.

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
I've been looking at getting a pair of these. Interesting to see it from your perspective. I wonder how much it really will differ

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
It's a case by case basis. They work well for me, but they might not work for you. I recommend doing the color blind test on their website, then going to an eye-doctor and having him check also.

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
I hope you are reading this with your glasses so this whole string doesn't look like disgusting brown.
I told a colorblind friend of mine that he should order a pair of these and he didn't want to for some reason :/.

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
That's really cool! It makes a lot of sense that they would make the colors more drastically different since color blindness effectively seems to duplicate the world in a sense (at least that's what I'm getting from it) kind of amazing that something that looks like sunglasses makes your visibility better in a sense.

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
I'm curious, is it protanomaly or deuteranomaly ?

Re: Today I saw color for the first time
Protan, so I couldn't see real green, red, yellow in a lot of things and green and reds would be brown. It's still really hard to explain what I can now see, but at first reds seemed like the biggest thing but after my eyes adjusted it became reds, purples, and yellows.
If you are considering getting these, i've learned from others it's literally a case by case basis on if it works. Some people it works amazingly well, others it doesn't help a bit. For me, it worked pretty well.
