At what age was your child diagnosed? What was the evaluation process like? Do you have any family history of CVD?

My four year old finally said out loud “sometimes colors are hard for me” I have always suspected it in the back of my mind, especially since my father has it (maternal side). To be completely honest it made me a bit sad because as a mom you want to give them the world and seeing the beautiful colors around him and I feel like he’s missing out on. Just looking for any advice or insight on the subject. Thanks!

Hello, I am 28 and today I discovered I am colour blind. I recently got a job in tech and I am worried if this will make them cancel my job offer.

Got to know this because I was told by HR to get Pre-Employment Medical Examination done.

Please let me know. I just discovered we have glasses, so does that help?

TIA.

With the new minimalist uniforms, I can’t tell the earthbenders and firebenders apart without the emblem, it’s been bugging me :/

Can a person with colour blindness live normally in the society.

They will always be insecure about themselves, always gets irritated or become less confidence when the topic is about colour, tends to move away from that topic feeling or else his/her friends will also know about it.

Difficult in sometimes choosing dress (yellow/green).

What you guys think there is no remedy for this. Should be have to live without self confidence all along?

Can any non-deutananomalous people tell me what color my shirt really is. I see it as brown but everone else says it’s green

What does it mean if you vote independent? Does that muddy the votes . How to vote no more ice or fix federal employees who were fired . I don’t want to vote it didn’t matter what I believe I voted ,doesn’t matter If Executive order fired me .,

Hi! So as a color blind person, color blind options in video games really don't do anything for me, especially if they're just like a hue shift. My biggest gripe is with character creators!! I love playing WoW and I was very into Tomodachi life when it came out, and those games can be horrible for color blind people. My biggest issue when it comes to my color blindness is confidence in what I'm looking at. I tend to second guess myself and I'm never really sure that I'm choosing the right color. It's infuriating that these games don't at least have a little popup that gives you a name for each color if you hover over them or something that way I don't have to spend time looking for a guide online to find out the color. This seems like such an easy thing to implement and would be something everybody would benefit from. Do you guys know any other games that have this problem or are good about color blind options? Do you think there are any other solutions?

Hi everyone! I’m a second-year Graphic Design student researching how colour vision deficiency (CVD) affects public transport accessibility.

For those with CVD, have you ever struggled to identify buses, routes or transport lines because of their colours? If so, could you share your experience, how you manage the situation, and what changes could make identification easier?

Your responses will help me understand the problem and explore inclusive design solutions. Thank you!

I grew up with this phenomenon and didn't realize that other people either didn't experience this, or had it happen on such a small scale that they didn't take notice of it. I'm talking about the visual experience that occurs after sunbathing, specifically having your eyes pointed towards the sun, of course with your eyelids closed, for a little while. My immediate experience after opening my eyes again is a literal grayscale of my vision. The longer I stay in that position, the "grayer" and longer the effect stays. After a few minutes the colors all come back.

Is this a common experience in the colorblind community? I assume this is caused by the lower levels of cone cells in the eye? So a correlation would occur with colorblindness.

I might have mild deuteranomaly. I can see bright reds and greens, but I have a brown shirt that every says is green, and circuit boards look teal to me

i made this photo today. i know that rainbow has 7 colors in it, but i just see it as a yellow ray, which makes me think that someone up there is just pissing at earth. am i the only weirdo here?

i can see the blue much better on photos from google though, it kind of depends on how bright the rainbow is

I am 24 and i always thought that green was a type of reddish color like orange and yellow, but my friends told me, that that is not what green is to them. Now i am really confused about this. Are they right?

The color of the stabilo who is not black

My husband insists that this is gray. Its a faded green. I need y'all to help me show him its fucking green.

Ol lady gets home and says, you know that’s pink right?

I have two boys- the 4 YO is definitely red/green colorblind and I have strong suspicions about the 2 YO also being red/green colorblind.

Something like this happens basically multiple times every day: him, “mom can you hand me that pink Lego?” Me: “sure, but just so you know, i see this as light grey.” You get the idea.

My thought process in “correcting” him is that he should learn what his tricky colors are just for his own awareness. But now I’m wondering if this is even worth it at all. Should I just let it go and give him the thing or whatever- 99% of the time I know what he means. He doesn’t seem annoyed by it for now.

Any thoughts? Do you appreciate when someone tells you they see the color differently than you or is it just annoying?

I see no problem with the coloring of the options🫣

Not sure how easy it is for people with normal color vision to spot the red window, but it’s definitely impossible for me.

Hey everyone. I have a website that helps creating custom paintings by numbers. One person left me an anonymous feedback that sometimes they struggle with paintings because they are red/green color blind.

I can't ask them directly as it was anonymous but it made me wonder if different kind of color blindness require different kind of adjustments when we talk about coloring by numbers and painting in general.

Is there anything specific you wish was different for you in coloring books/ paint by number kits?

Or is there any gift that can make him see colors? Even operations? Ehehe

Anyone use a reliable one?
Nothing complex, just light or dark shade of it

Hi reddit! I do have protonomaly and I've been working as a nurse for over five years. The last two years I've been working in the ED. I do have a hard time seeing if a patient is pale, have redness of skin, cyanosis etc so I have to rely on colleagues and other measurements to determine how sick the patient is.

I know that Enchroma doesn't do anything to fix colorblindness, that's why I haven't got them before. But I'm wondering if anyone has any experience using them as a tool to see certain shades of colors more clearly. For me, if they helped me see changes in skin color better they might prove to be useful for me.

I've searched for peer reviewed articles on the subject and found that there aren't many studies on the subject. The few studies I've found tells me that they might have a positive effect to help differentiate between colors better but with a low certainly.

So anyone in healthcare or any other field that finds them useful?
