What Is Color Blindness?

If you have color blindness, also called color vision deficiency, you experience the world in a different way than most people. It is a condition usually passed down to the offspring by parents. Even though it’s not a serious genetic disorder, it may make certain tasks difficult. People with color vision deficiency had their eye cones developed in a slightly different way which alters the way they perceive certain colors.

There is no cure for color blindness but special contact lenses or glasses can help dealing with this disorder. What is more, there are certain phone apps that can provide visual aid. All the user has to do is to take a photo with a phone or other device. The rest is done by the special application which will inform the user what color is a certain object.

Symptoms Of Color Vision Deficiency

The most common variant of color blindness is related to the colors of red and green. An individual with red and green blindness has a hard time telling these colors apart, while the less common variant makes it difficult to differentiate between yellow and blue. People with the rarest and most severe color blindness can’t see colors at all.

As many other disorders, color blindness can be mild, moderate, or severe. Sometimes a person may not even realize they are color blind if their symptoms are very mild. Apart from an ability to tell colors from each other, color vision deficiency impacts the perception of colors brightness and recognizing shades of colors.

The most severe types of color blindness also include other symptoms like sensitivity to light, or nystagmus (fast side-to-side eye movements).

Origins Of Color Blindness Tests

One of the first scientific methods to evaluate color blindness was developed by Turberville in 1684. The study compared color naming of various objects by color blind individuals with a healthy person. 

The next test was developed in 1837 by Seebeck, which required the tested individual to choose colored samples from a range of samples and match it with a test sample. This study didn’t include color naming which was present in Turbeville’s method.

The color blind studies took an interesting turn in 1873. It was then when famous pseudoisochromatic plates were used for the first time by Stilling. Pseudoisochromatic plate is composed of colorful spots with an embedded symbol (shape, letter, number) consisting of spots of colors different from the background. The study turned out to be a huge success, and because of that, a lot of modern color blind tests are based on this method.

Another method was developed in 1903 by Williams which involved the use of lanterns. The test consisted of colored signal lights which had to be named by the participant. The advantage of Williams’ method is that it simulates real life events. A lot of modern tests are based on William’s idea. The lantern method is popular among armed forces of certain countries and is used as a test for transport workers.
