If you read the story behind these glasses they were literally created by accident. I think it started with a few men who were experimenting with lens coatings for, I think, golf. One of their friends, who happened to be red-green colorblind, put a test pair on and were stunned to see colors they had never seen before.

these videos have given me such an appreciation for the color purple

So many great comments. Thank you everyone. Just an update 7 odd years later. Tyrone still has the glasses and is still the same awesome guy. He doesn't use the glasses for photography, which may sound strange to some. And he doesn't wear the glasses every day. When he wears them, they give him such a sense of awe. He doesn't want to lose that great feeling and the experience of gratitude they give when he wears them. Too much of a good thing will often cause us to not appreciate it. He takes them out when he believes the colours are rich or on special occasions. Champion of a guy. Deserves every great comment in here. Thanks again. Cheers :)

+jhanthony2 Enchroma claims to improve colour vision, not correct it. They openly state on their site it will most likely not improve the results of a colour blind test. The goal is to see more colour, not perfect colour. Tyrone was able to identify purple flowers in amongst green scrub. Something he wasn't able to do prior. Their glasses boost vibrancy, which is why they work best in full sunlight. If a colour blind person can see 200,000 colours instead of 50,000 colours thanks to the glasses then great. Unless the colour blind person wanted to be a pilot, I'm sure passing a test would be the last thing on their mind. Like Tyrone, they are just happy to see colour closer to the way we see it. I've known Tyrone for 20 years. If he could act that well he would not be doing commercials for Enchroma. He'd be in Hollywood.

And I'll just add again, that you're all being sold a bridge by a Nigerian prince. The things don't work. They are NOT adding "vibrancy." Whatever that means. This is absolutely nothing more than a modern version of rose colored glasses.

If anyone is wondering what it's like to be colour blind, my son showed me this little trick. 1. close both eyes. 2. Shine a mobile phone light through the eye lid of your right eye for 30 seconds (you'll see a very orange colour) 3. Remove light, cover your right eye and look through your left eye. 4. Cover your left eye and look through your right eye. You can see the difference. One is more monotone and you can't see the red tones. Don't worry your eyes will re-adjust in a few minutes.

I was 13 months old and my brother was just past 2 1/2 when he died. We were gifted with photos he made from all over the world. They are stamped "Released by U.S. Navy and the date." He caught a really special moment when Grace Kelly and her husband Prince Rainier of Monaco did a ships inspection. I love his shots of the Rock of Gibraltar, burlesque fan dancers in France, and Rome's ruins. One day I might scan them in and post them to a video. Actually, thank you for sparking that idea. It would be amazing to hear from any of the men who were on that ship. It caught fire twice and they used the films to train later crews.

He's going to be walking around going "WHAT ARE THOSEEEEEE?!"

Got a great big smile on my face, so nice to see stuff like this, good on you all!

I"m weeping right now. "Is that what you see all the time?"

I'd have to think that first night it'd be hard to get to sleep as your mind replays the things you've seen that day [PURPLE!!!]. It seems like it'd almost be what it's like for a newborn, as far as the "newness" of everything. Like dropping acid the first time (which I haven't done, but the after-effect seems like it might be similar). I can't really empathize because I'm extremely "color sensitive" so I can see tiny shade differences between colors. I work at Lowe's in the Paint Department and I'm trying to get EnChroma glasses in our department. SO MANY men come in, who can't see color. They'll ask me to "pick out a gray for me". They can't do it because half the colors look like versions of gray. They can't see the subtlety of taupe compared to gray or yellow, red, green or orange. It seriously pains me that some people can't see how amazing the world looks! When the colorblind ask, "Is it like this for you all the time?" I'd want to say something like, "No. Only on weekends." :-)
