Bought for bf who is red green color blind. I was afraid they weren't going to work I cried with anticipation. He said the lawn was one color, now he can see the dead 'brown' spots different from the 'green'.
I put him to the test and took red food coloring drops on different items, a piece of wood, on a leaf, on the cement, in sand ....(he's a hunter and could never tell where there was blood) i took him outside and pointed to the objects and said what do you see,? He COULD SEE THE DROPS OF RED!!
But what's green red and brown to him are probably different if I were to classify those colors with my 'normal' eyes right? He says he uses the glasses at work. He now can see drops of blood, or know when a intersection light is green/red. (Texas horizontal intersection lights shouldnt be too hard now? He used to just go by going with the flow of traffic around him)
Thank you, maker's of this product, to give the gift of a colorful world !

“You never told me we lived in a red house!”
My father is a severe deutan color blind (red green color blind). We are taking a trip to Colorado to see the Aspens changing and thought these were worth trying and not a huge investment. He put them on and kept looking back and forth saying “wow” and then immediately asked to walk outside. He saw RED for the first time in his 71 years of life. He thought he knew what red was but had no idea until he put these glasses on. Even the sky was bluer. When we came home he excitedly walked inside proclaiming “our house is red! You never told me we lived in a red house! I thought the brick was brown!” HAPPY TEARS all around for this family!! These aren’t perfect, but fit well on to his trifocal prescription glasses and were well worth every penny to know if they even work before investing in a prescription pair. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!
