Description

Have you ever wondered whether the colour or shade that you see is the same as what the people around you see? In this episode, we talk about the colour of objects, how humans see colour, and the different types of colour blindness. Finally, we go through the technology behind colour blind glasses and whether they actually work.

TLDR: Currently available EnChroma glasses are designed to address only certain forms of red-green colour blindness (specifically deuteranomaly and protanomaly)
