Default 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 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.

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

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.

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.

A+ decision to have someone take a video; I'd imagine there will never be a time quite like the first time.

do what top said, sunset is a must.

Same. I'm super happy for you Xiz. I'm sure it was a mixture of being surreal and overwhelming.
Everything you knew was a lie!

Nah man, in all reality, I'm glad you got to experience something that we take for granted, and I'm really glad you shared it with us.

I can barely tell red from orange on Velocity.

But with your new powers, maybe you can.

Congrats, Xiz. :)

Mhm. That and "Everything's just obnoxiously 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.

"Today I saw color for the first time" LIES! :P As a fellow colorblind person, we've (me and you in this case) always seen colors.. We just couldn't distinguish them. False title!!!11!

kidding.

Really cool to see your reaction though. I've seen other vids on these glasses and other reaction videos too. I really want to try a pair of these out. They are really really expensive though. I have this app on my phone that uses the camera and like a crosshair that tells you what color something is. I've used that a few times.
