Things I've learned watching these Enchroma videos: 1. No one ever buys these glasses for themselves.
Probably because they have no idea about a world with more colours than what they can already see and don't think it's worth the effort getting them just to see something that is just a little bit different , until they actually do see it is a lot different \m/ :)
I did and I love them
I thought that too initially, but I have actually come across several older videos where the person who is colorblind bought the glasses. One of the most touching ones is a video of a deaf guy trying it on for the first time. He explains (via sign language & subtitles) that he ordered the glasses & wanted to do the demo right away, but most of his family/friends were busy at work or whatever. He didn't want to wait (too excited) so he filmed himself on the front porch. He doesn't pan around to show what he is looking at so you only get to view his reaction & shock at the new world he sees. :-)
@@nancyberry1039 I've seen that video (American sign language is vastly different to the uk), he's a tall chap balding 30's probably. Was definitely a different video to the moral encroma ones.
Maybe they don't want to spend ~$400, like "Naaah, I live with this all my life, it's okay"
UPDATING TO REMOVE THE TYPE OF COLOR BLINDNESS I HAVE. AS SOMEONE POINTED OUT, IT CANNOT BE RED/GREEN AS THAT IS THE ABSENCE OF COLOR AND THAT IS NOT WHAT I HAVE. I cried when I put my Enchroma glasses on the first time too. It took about 30 secs for my eyes to adjust to the new colors but when it came in I was shocked! I seen dimension in trees for the first time. Trees in so many shades of green that I had never seen before and I could finally see distance. Enchroma glasses are truly remarkable for a color blind person. Edit to answer questions: - I am partially colorblind. I have issues primarily with green and some small deficiency with blue. - I am female which is more rare than male. My brother is also partially color blind with the same colors. - I can only speak for myself but I know the difference (mostly) between green and all the other colors but its hue and shading that I have issues with. For example if similar greens are all laid out together I probably couldn't tell them apart unless one was dark and the other light. - I would only recommend these glasses as a gift if that person has confirmed they are color blind and which type of lenses they need. My husband bought these for me after I confirmed my deficiency type at an eye clinic. There are multiple color blind tests online you can take to see if you are color blind as well but I would suggest seeing an eye doctor to confirm before ordering - What happens to me when I wear my glasses outside is for the first half a minute nothing and then pretty quickly I start to see different shades of green and I can tell which trees are in front and which are behind so its a depth thing for me. Living in MN, I didnt know what I was missing until I got these because I see all new colors of greens that I didnt before. For example, when I sit on my deck I can see many lines of trees in our neighborhood but they all sort of look like they are equal distance , blending together, etc. Maybe a few different colors. When I put them on I can see dozens of different shades of green. Its slightly similar with blue but not nearly to the extent. I know this is called red/green deficiency but I dont seem to have much of an issue with red. - some other colors are now very vibrant to me - I think the rarest type of color blindness is where they only see greyscale so no color at all. That is NOT what I have though. I suspect they see shading of some sort. I would guess these people need to learn which color is which is they see no color at all but again, I dont really know how that works.
I want to buy glassess for my husband too(he don't recognize red shades).💙 Do you know is there are difference between Enchroma and simple red lense glasses? 🙂
I would too! We all take what we already have for granted. ❤️
Trust me, although not for the same reason, I know the feeling :)
@@rupis409 Hello, so far as I know they would be pretty much like us putting on a regular pair of sunglasses, where the red ones will give a reddish tint to everything and the others will make things look a lot closer to normal. Roughly 80% of colourblind people who have tried these see all of the same full colours as we do (Black, White, Grey, Clear, Pink, Brown, Beige, Peach, Yellow, Purple, Orange, Blue and of course the RedGreen show, lolz) along with the other mixtures of colours created by them. But on the opposite end of things, there are some people who are Tetrachromats (Tetrachromatic vision) who have a 4th colour cone and when they are spaced properly they can see like a 100X more colourations then virtually everyone else with normal colour vision, so to them we would be the colourblind ones who see things as being quite flat, bland and dull... Whether or not there are more full colours that we have yet to see... Who knows :)
@@jordanphilipperris now I know! I bought enchroma red-green glasses for my colorblind husband, but unfortunately it didn't worked (tried yesterday) for him. I tried them by myself (I'm not colorblind) - they intensed greens and reds (like deeper darker colors like a photofilter, colors the same just deeper and intense, not much, but more attractive) + sunglasses darkening effects (like usual sunglasses). I would definitely were them for fun, but it's too expensive (and I'm not colorblind, and didn't worked for my husband) so today I sent glasses to enchroma back.
The ones with the older people always get me the hardest. They had to go their whole lives without seeing the beauty of color. Then one day, their whole lives change. It’s bittersweet. ❤
I think of all the placs they have been, especially world travelers, without really seeing the most beautiful scenes, like landscapes or paintings.
@@patriot20000 right?!
Yeah
these videos are staged
these videos are sadly staged
I really feel for the elderly men who sees colors for the very first time - live a hole life almost colorless and then be able to see colors - hope they live many many years and can see the beautiful colors around them
They see colors, just not red, green, and purple shades.
I just realized how blessed we are to be able to see colors. It broke my heart to see their reaction, not knowing what color is. I'm so happy for all of them.
They know what color is. Color blindness is just when you cannot see certain colors.
@@greenberrygk more specifically, certain shades of color
Amen
Imagine not seeing then seeing. That’s impossible unless you experience it and trust me it’s sucks ass sight is sooo taken for granted. Take care of your eyes people
We take many many things for granted ! Thank GOD fir the technology now , soon no one will have to live without deafness , blindness and many things we just ignore day to day . Someday !
I can’t even imagine how emotional this must be. “All my life, this is what it was supposed to look like?” Id be rethinking everything I’ve ever seen
My favorite was the little boy who said " I'm never taking these off!".
Yes but they cannot really see the colours we do anyway. I think both colorblind and color-seeing people think that they suddenly see the same thing because of the glasses. But no, someone who cannot see our "red" will never be able to without some advanced surgery to get those rods in their eyes. What is actually happening is that there is more distinction between the colours they can already see. So say green and yellow both looks light brown, with the glasses one of those colours now become lighter/darker or more saturated, making it possible to distinguish them from each other!
@@sofiakangas8796 I know but it’s still wild to think about. Imagine living your life with muted colors with the knowledge that you’re seeing less of the world than people around you. Then, you finally get a chance to see as others do. The technology behind it is incredible. The fact that we have such an adept knowledge of how light works that we can bend it to create specific colors and hues for the impaired is such a cool concept. Idk maybe I’m just a nerd
@@VeMM0 Hell yeah it's cool. Though it is also true that us "regular" people don't even see the full light spectrum. There are animals that see a lot more colours than we do and it would be great to try glasses that could help us see something like that. But then again, it would probably be like seeing shades of colours we already can could see though.
Whivh one is this?
Don't we take our sight and the colours of the world for granted? It's heart warming to see these folks see all colours for the first time.
The vast majority of people with colour blindness can see colour, they just see certain colours differently. Rather than seeing everything in black and white, they maybe see two different colours as the same. This ignorance around colour blindness and how it actually works is why scams like these are so successful.
My color blind uncle passed away a few years before we found out about these glasses. I wish we could have had something like this for him. He would have absolutely loved it. My grandmother would have been so happy for him too.
good that he died without knowing these exists, cuz these glasses are fake. go google.
You realized its a scam right?:D
"holy crapadoodle" this child needs to be protected
lmao for real
@D'Kanza Azango I made it 70 likes 😈
@D'Kanza Azango I was just joking, I will put it back to 69
😄😁😆
Yeah he does from ppl like you with no real understanding .
When they guy said "The world actually looks like this?" I felt I've taken the world for granted Let's not forget we're so blessed for seeing colors as they are
You fell for the scam, these glasses are fake there's nothing that can be done about colorblindness.
I reacted like this when I was 8. Except my glasses were regular glasses. I was stunned that I could see each individual leaf in a tree, every small rock in gravel, strands of hair etc. I thought everyone saw the same blurry world I saw, but then I realized that I had been missing something big. I'll never forget that day. So in a way I can identify with these people. (I do have perfect color vision, thank God. Colorblindness does run in my family. Also total blindness)
Same! I have the same vivid memory from 40 years ago! I love these videos and videos of babies getting prescription glasses.
My vision isn’t bad I just have a hard time at night.. lights look like blinding fuzz balls idk how to explain it lol.. first time I drove at night I was expecting the sudden blindness from oncoming cars but when that first car drove by and I was able to see fine I cried.. it was so stressful to drive the backroads because of that fear of meeting a car at night and something happening.. Only way I can explain is the feeling you get when someone turns on the lights after you’ve been sitting in a dark room for awhile.. imagine this happening every time an oncoming car drives by.. it’s only a few seconds but the road I had to drive goes through the mountains so it’s got really tight curves… the ones curving to the right were ok but every curve going to he left was hell.. lol
I was... 21 I thought i was just a little nearsighted, that it would make roadsigns readable before I reached them.... I went and picked them up on my work break. In Spring. And drove back to my job on a big green campus type site. WHOA! Individual leaves, buds, FLOWER Petals, grass blades, DIRT texture just walking up the path. Life was never the same again. ☺️
When I was 8 a got my first set of prescription glasses. 2 things struck me, first was that the moon was TINY. And the second was suddenly realizing how my friends could recognize someone all the way across the street.
The colorblindness glasses are a scam and these reactions are staged
So many things we take for granted in our lives. These people seeing color for the first time is so heartwarming.
these reactions are staged
The majority of colour blind people don't have monochromacy (seeing in black and white), they can see colours, but some different colours look the same. These glasses are a scam and they don't even claim to cure monochromacy. So, they aren't "seeing color for the first time".
How heartwarming is it to know that these glasses are a scam and everyone in these clips was intentionally misleading their viewers to get more views?
The people who invented these glasses deserve every bit of greatness that can come, awesome
You know what is the funniest part about this? It was an accident. The guy originally created a glass for doctors to help with surgeries, but then one of his friends, who was colorblind, tried them on for fun and had the shock of his life. Thats when the dude realized his glasses could be used for something completely different from his initial objective and decided to focus on that and improve it
@@satsujin4027 good to know thank you!
@@satsujin4027 hey, great things can come by accident, all good
It's really an achievement for humankind. They should get some kind of reward if they haven't already. It's just a beautiful thing to bring the sensation of color to those who would otherwise lived their whole lives not knowing it.
@@satsujin4027 penicillin was an accident too😁
My old boss was color blind and every year he was asked to be one of the judges in a coloring contest. He always chose the weirdest ones and nobody understood why. He never told them. Not his problem 😂
Pfffff
Imagine not having a sense of smell and judging a cooking competition then just shrugging your shoulders and saying "not my problem". No, but it's the contestants' problem who put in effort to have someone in no position to judge them judging them 😅
😂 thats funny. I wonder what it looked like to him.
you must be working directly for Crayola and eat harbo's for lunch
Someone ik said he won a coloring contest when he was young cos the judges said he had unique perception and the ability to imagine unlike other kids. Well he is color blind and so colored the sky reddish pink.
The joy and wonder from each person made me so grateful for being born seeing color. I am so glad that these glasses were created to improve people's lives.
It may have been an accident but Don McPherson improved the lives of so many people when he attempted to make glasses for surgeons using lasers in surgery. I couldn’t imagine a life without all the beautiful colours I see on a daily basis. Good to see that the price for these is coming down too so even more people will be able to see the natural beauty our planet has.
Based on what the lady said about the sunset, I just asked my wife to buy these for Father’s Day. For all the haters replying to this. Color blindness muddles all the colors. Imagine seeing trees and grass as the same shade and not being able to differentiate. It reminds me when I got glass for the first time and I could see each individual leaf instead of brown shade. I’m excited to try them to see what I’ve been missing. Especially, seeing a sunset for the true colors it offers.
So did you get them ? I hope you did and had a wonderful experience. Everyone should be able to see the sunset in all its glory.
Did you get the glasses? We need an update!
I actually did get the glasses for father’s day. I cried like a baby and I don’t ever cry. I kept pointing out different colors to my wife and son. My wife has hibiscus in the back yard that to me has always been one color. After I put the glasses on, I realized that it was two different colors. The most surprising color was the sky. All my life I couldn’t see the true color of the sky. I was told it was blue but once I put the glasses on, the sky just exploded with blue. It was like an alien world. I understand why grown men cry when putting the glasses on for the first time. You realize that you’ve missed out on God’s true beauty all your life. All the times we went on vacation and saw sites that had my wife in awe, really wasn’t all that special to me. Now we are going to have to revisit all the sites I missed the colors on. The biggest issue I ran into when wearing the glasses, at first, I wore them a couple hours and they gave me a headache. After a couple weeks, I was able to wear them for 5-6 hours before getting a headache. Now I can wear them all the time. I have an email in to Enchroma to see if they will custom fit lenses in my camo hunting glasses. Hahah
@@ryandroddy4157 That is so wonderful! Do you have any new favorite colors? I hope they are able to custom fit the lenses for you. I'm so happy for you. Congratulations!
@@lauratreasures3816 Green is so rich to me now. But it has to be blue. I can’t wait to go back to Florida to see the water with these on. Blue was always washed out light blues. Navy’s look black to me, so to see the whole spectrum of blue is my favorite.
The one sentence that always touches my heart - was once a young man said. “This is how you see all the time!” That one line touched me so much. How often I take the glorious colors I see so for granted..
Same here !
how do they know the names of colors if it was their first time to see colors?
@@rajawi9999 In the types of colour blindness that these glasses fix, the person can see some colour to start with, it's just that they tend to see reds and greens as a sort of muddy brown a lot of the time. If you show them pure red, they'll know it's red, and if you show them pure green they'll know its green, but anything in between gets muddled. All these glasses do is unmuddle the wavelengths of light for those people.
I was about to comment the same. It's the small little details in life that we take for granted.
These do not at all make you see like "normal"
The kid asking if he can wear them to school and wear them forever broke me. I’m a rough man, but that made me cry, I’m tearing up and can’t stop! God dang it!
I know what you're saying.
4:08 That reaction "I did?" and how nonchalant he was, made me laugh. I'm happy for these people.
I wish these were around when my dad was alive . Black,white,and grays is all my dad could see..green and red were the same to him . Sunday morning before church was always different . He had to ask us what color they were to match his socks,pants and shirt . Funny thing was dad was a good painter. He did not know what color it was but he could tell the difference between the wet paint and dry paint. Miss ya dad. These made me cry .
And I know that he alwsys loved you too.
I don’t want to upset you, but glasses wouldn’t help your father
I don’t think they work for all types of color blindness. Only those with partial red/green color sight.
This doesnt work for fully colorblind person and even for red/green colorblind person it has 20% chance that it doesnt work according to the official website
My Dad was color blind also, and like you I wish Dad was still alive to wear these.
The little boy with the gray hoodie and camo shorts is so adorable. He was so happy and very appreciative. So sweet.
Yeah, really good actor
He will never win an Oscar!
@@Mrsstick07 lol, someone else who knows it takes up to 20 minutes for the glasses to take affect
@@declansb641 Why would it take 20 minutes to work? That sounds incorrect to me.
@@tomcutts9200 idk why it takes that long, but go on the enchroma website, the smallest amount of time is 5 minutes
Whoever put so much effort in that technology really really deserves so much thanks.
bro this dont work, this is a scam
I ended up getting colourblind glasses 3 months ago and it may have been the best purchase I've ever made it was weird seeing what some colours truly looked like
Seeing the kids get to see colors for the first time literally makes my heart complete.
@` NWK_ I'm colorblind doesnt mean i cant see any colour, i see colours just cant differentiate between shades of colours
@@samrlbarton2722 Acting like a smart person, are you?
@@samrlbarton2722 they still go to school and learn colors 😂
They don't get to see colors for the first time. Thats not how the glasses work. All they are seeing are different shades of pink. They might be able to differentiate between certain colors now, but if you aren't able to see a certain color, absolutely nothing in the world is able to fix that.
these reactions are staged
GASP!! Dude I just thought of something I hadn’t thought of before! If you get these glasses to need to go back and watch all your favorite movies and cartoons again! See it all in glorious colors!!
I had no idea color blindness was such a handicap. It made me cry to see how emotional their experience was. I will have to inquire if anyone I know is color blind so I can give them these glasses as a gift.
it isn't really a handicap, these vids are exaggerated/fake.
This was very moving to watch. We take for granted the wonderful colours we see everywhere every day.
I agree. Surely these glasses should be issued to anyone suffering with this condition free of charge
@@lightfootpathfinder8218 Totally agree! 👍
"I'm gonna wear these forever, right?" hahahahahaahahaha what a a cute kid!
That boy reminds me of my own son! 💕🤣
I AM SO HAPPY FOR THAT YOUNG BOY AND HIS MOM !!!
And his fake reaction?
@@declansb641 ahaha
Yeaah how he knows the color of he never seen that
Fake AAFf
I love how in most of these vids, the ppl gifting the glasses are purposefully wearing bright colors(like the balloons) to give the wearer something to see instantly 😭❤
As an artist; I cannot IMGINE my life without color. I had a co-worker in an electronics plant who was bent on being an electrician like his father. It was actually then when he began to discover that he couldn't tell the difference in the wires and parts. He was heartbroken. I really HOPE he got a pair of these, he surely had the drive and IQ.
I really can't imagine what they're going through. The world is full of bright and vibrant colors, i'm happy that science and technology have made this posible
Same
I am color blind, but see plenty of colors. They just are not the same as what others see.
I put my new glasses on and entered a fairyland of colour and magic, my eyes brimmed with tears and I saw my first watercolour.
Try seeing a rainbow!
LMAOO
Ok, I cherry picked old comments for an actual colorblind person.... I am really colorblind in RG, and all dark shades. I was the kid coloring a purple ocean. I can see maybe 1 or 2/15+ # test images.... These ppl are acting like they all see in grayscale. I can't imagine getting moved to tears from putting these on... What am I missing?
I can;t imagine how brethtaking it would be to see color for the first time in your life. Especially foir the older people. Imagine living for 50 60 70 years never seeing purple . The people that made these glasses are amazing!
The vast majority of us see in color, complete color blindness is fairly rare. In my own case, I’m red/green (most common) color blind. It doesn’t mean I can’t see red or green, it means they are sometimes interchangeable, especially with colors that contain them. Hence why blue and purple look the same to me.
They don't work for all kinds of colorblindness (there are about 8 different kinds), but they are very cool regardless. Sometimes they can take several minutes to get used to and have the full effect. My dad is 80 and, amazingly, we just found out that he was colorblind for the first time. He's dropped hints here and there over the years but we finally had it confirmed with one of those colored circle tests. We are looking into getting these glasses for him.
7 kinds
As a person who isn't color blind, but suffered from Nearsightedness from childhood and only being able to read things within a few feet for over 10 years. I know how these people feel, when I got my first pair of eyeglasses to correct my vision It was as if I was viewing the world for the first time over again.
Yes. It was such a shock. Hell, still can be if my script gets out of date enough and I get a new pair.
I know right. I am nearsighted as well. I felt the same way! It's incredible.
Same. Nearsighted. When I got my first glasses to correct my vision everything became so clear and focused. Before it was all fuzzy shapes.
Same!
I remember my little brother yelling “there are sticks in the tops of the trees” he’d never noticed the definition before getting his glasses
This video just made me realize how blessed I am to see the world in color, even though my vision's not 20/20. I'm genuinely happy for these people to finally see what most of us see. Thank God there are people who invented these.
Thank science.
I’m colourblind and I wish I had those
thank god I can see colors too, though my color blind only active on certain colors, not all of them. like sometimes I can't tell the difference between the bright light green from yellow until I closely stare at the two, same light purple as I always think the light purple is blue again, until I closely stare at it.
Have some magic mushrooms and see things with even more color! haha
@Potato :] Same
I would take a person to a Wal-Mart or something like that, just so they can really see lots & lots of colors. These video’s made ME cry. I’m so happy for you all !
If only they weren’t staged I wouldn’t consider this fraud.
I just realized how blessed i am to have normal eyes.
is not really blessed, because thats just the norm, the other people where cursed.

how do they know the names of colors if it was their first time to see colors?
That kid had me loling and sharing this to my mom.
This is so moving and just reminds me how we take things for granted and how we don't appreciate what we have and how precious simple things can be for people.
They have them in contacts now and they work really great!
I was just wondering about that!!! Awesome!
What are they called? I ask my optometrist every year with no luck. My appointment is coming in a couple weeks and I'm ready to ask again.
Watch one of these every morning to realize how tremendously blessed you are!
We are all blessed in different ways eh Mitzi?
5:40 that kid’s reaction...amazing & heart-warming. So happy for that kid!
"And this is white... and this is black...
And when he ask, can he use it at school...and forever... He still clueless saying it's kinda blue kinda... 😂❤️Love how excited he is ..
How can he know the color ha has not seen before ???
That little boy made me smile so big!
@@runelund5600 Because they know the colors by the different shades. They know for example "Red" looks like "Yellow darker" or green looks "Yellow but lighter" . I used to know a guy who was like this and when he saw colors for the first time he was able to recognize some of the colors.
Something as simple as seeing colors can be so easily taken for granted. Life's beauty can be seen every day all around us and we choose not to take it all in. I'm so happy for these people.
A world with colors is a beautiful world. Some people dont see them in things, others can't see them in humans.
This puts into prospective just one of the things I take for granted everyday.
So true
I was going to say, how we take being able to see color for granted! I love watching these videos! I get so emotional with them!
“Wait you guys see like this all the time? It’s beautiful” - best ad I ever heard for these
Whoever invented these deserves a medal. People's lives are being dramatically improved thanks to their innovation and hard work. Just the reactions people have when they see colour for the first time warms my heart.
its fake
The product is actually a scam. It isn’t scientifically possible for them to do what they do unfortunately
@@adamlevine9090as a deuter, I unfortunately fell victim to these glasses. They don’t deserve a medal. They deserve a bankruptcy
I am not colour blind, but I can only IMAGINE if someone told me that I was missing out in seeing things all of my life, I put in these glasses and I find out how much I had been missing! Today is the first time I have come across these videos. It is great to know that these glasses can do this! How thrilling for these sweet people
I’ve never heard a kid be so happy saying the colors of the rainbow 😂 it’s adorable
Loved the last guys reaction the most. So humble.
It was probably the only thing about himself he didn’t like. His one weakness.
He was really moved
@@stevelock3026 i have so many questions myself
The fact that these glasses were made/found by accident make me so happy it brought something we take for granted to people who we tend to forget about
Whenever I'm feeling down, I watch these videos and they bring me such vicarious joy and I'm reminded of something profound that I usually take for granted. I'm so happy for the people who have the opportunity to get the chance to see the beautiful colors in this world.
I cried all the way through these. Never realized how much I took for granted being able to see colors all around me. This video has made me learn to appreciate all I am able to see. Great video and thanks for sharing this!!!!!
I can’t get passed 8 minutes before bawling my eyes out. I’ll continue later. So beautiful
Bawling, not balling your eyes out

really hit home with the old guy at 24 minutes, bless his heart, welcome to the world of colour buddy ❤️
As a colorblind person I really want to cry like these people. I want/need those glasses. I feel bad.
What is their cost?

@@cjhermsen1700 they are even more expensive in Turkey because of the currency
How do these people identified the colors name if they had never seen them
I am not color blind but who ever invented this glasses, Thank you! it brings so much joy to people.
Don McPherson and amazingly enough it was actually an accident.
It seems we've taken for granted the gift of seeing color, life is too short, be happy and love one another. This was beautiful.
We take all gifts from God for granted. The biggest being Jesus Christ dying on the Cross for our sins. The older I get the more I realize how much of a fool I have been to those around me. To myself. To family. We have been blessed, truely blessed to grow up in this world today where such things are now possible, yet we all tend to take for granted that which we should not. I weep at the thought of the ones who die, that I affected negatively in the past. Life is a lesson. Day by day. We must all learn to care and love more.
What an incredible technology. I have never taken for granted the gift of seeing color and that's why these videos are so touching to watch. These people have been given the greatest gift from their loved ones. It's truly beautiful to witness.
I have this same reaction when I finally bought an eyeglass for my nearsightedness and got worsen to astigma. Everything looks clear and crisp. This is so heartwarming. ❤❤❤
As someone who has an eye disease, be grateful for your eyesight. One day I woke up almost losing it and I never took it for granted ever again. I don’t remember what it’s like to see normal but I’m thankful I can still see even though it’s not perfect.
“Oh oh I gotta put these back on” 😂 -kid in grey hoodie
I wonder if that part was in the script...
That kids was amazin
Honestly.... I would have taken the person out into nature in spring when trees were blooming. Given them the glasses and simply let them enjoy the wonderful splendor of nature and the colors (an I would played "what a wonderful world"). The clip made me realize that I have to enjoy EVERY single day - and I'm grateful for that!
I always took for granted being able to see colours. These videos have shown me the power and majesty of colour. When the people cry, I cry too because I can understand that it must be like seeing a whole new world. Like going from living in black and white to living in colour. These glasses are an absolute blessing.
They can see color. Just not red, green, and purple shades. Thse glasses are for red/green color blindness.
I think the greatest thing that ever happened in the last 100yrs is the enchroma glasses. To give color to people who thought they would never see color is amazing. It's like a rebirth.
I remember someone telling me that there was a guy in art class who could only draw in pencil because he didn't know what colours were. He had to ask someone what colour his house was after he painted. He chose pink of all colours and had to repaint it. This would be a Godsend for someone like that. What a fantastic invention. Just so unbelievable they found a way for people to see colour. So happy for these people
Colorblindness-correcting glasses will not change color perception for people whose deficiency is caused by a complete absence of red or green photoreceptors. And the positive effects of the glasses last only as long as they are being worn. The glasses don't in any way modify a person's photoreceptors, optic nerves or visual cortex to fix colorblindness. "Color perception requires a complete set of optimally functioning equipment, and glasses will not replace or repair missing or broken mechanisms," says Dr. Schwab.
What an unbelievably wonderful gift to be able to give someone.
I love the guy holding the red patio umbrella like "Are you seeing this?!"
These always make me happy!!! ❤️ I cry every time!!!
It's someone chopping onions...
Me too! 😭
Ме тоо
Same here! I love these videos, and the one's of kids hearing for the first time, or seeing clearly for the first time. Kleenex is definitely getting a chunk of my money lol
I don’t even like colors and I’m crying😭
Forgive my ignorance but, I didn't know this condition exist. I am beyond happy for them. Much love. 💕
More men have it but women too. I can’t imagine not seeing color.
1 out of 8 men have varying degrees of color deficiency, "blindness." It's a lot.
The best joy is seeing other people's joy. Thanks for posting.
"This is a completely different color that I haven't seen before. And I've been wearing it."
I have been binge watching Enchroma videos. They remind me of the Wizard of Oz where Dorothy lands in Oz and the movie goes from black and white to brilliant technocolor.
I have been waiting for someone to mention that movie.
These videos will never stop being heartwarming! The pure childlike joy is the best
I love this, but curious as to how they can recognize colors if they couldn't see them before.
I'm wondering the same thing? I'm assuming that colour blindness is different for everybody, and some might be able to see muted versions of colours, so when they see them with the glasses, it just makes the colours more vibrant. That of course is an assumption on my part ^
Maybe its like seeing 480p to 4k, colors look more enhanced.
To a colorblind person, they just look very similar. Red and orange might look the same but just have a very slight difference in them but they wouldn’t be able to tell which is which. They still know that orange is lighter than red but just can’t see it if that makes sense
I think its just shades of the colours. So to use blue and yellow are completely different, to them, yellow make just be lighter shade of blue.
These glasses correct deuteranopia, where colours between red and green get muddled up. The person already knows what all the colours are, but doesn't get strong contrast between red and green... these glasses exacerbate the contrast, which makes everything suddenly seem more colourful (since almost everything has some amount of red and green in it)
The guy who opened the door and screamed 😂😂.. beautiful..
Omg this is so emotional to me … it’s truly a miracle and the affect it has on the people using the glasses is just wonderful to see 👍🏴
I see a lot of comments talking about the kids but for me the clips of the older people really got me, knowing theyve gone most of their life without able to see color
I cried all the way thru this, it’s amazing how we that aren’t color blind take the colors for granted, you could feel the emotions and love from the family and people that gifted these individuals with that gift and the true happiness of the ones that received it, God bless you all
never knew there were glasses to help people with being color blind. this warms my heart seeing these people happy
How emotional they get seeing something we see everyday.
Something we take for granted is seeing and seeing color! I was so excited when I saw the reactions when they eventually saw color.
Experiencing the world all over again especially for adults. Breathtaking and emotional. World needs more improvements like these.
I second that and agree with you 100%!
They never really had a full grasp of what they're missing until they had these pair of glasses. And most of us missed to appreciate what we're used to seeing until we saw this video. ♥️💚💛💜💙🧡
But I'm not actually missing out on something that I've never had. I have tritanomaly and from where I'm sitting, I seem to mostly pick up on everything everyone else is seeing. There isn't a huge difference and these glasses are very expensive for something that's more entertaining than useful.
@@runningfromabear8354 from what I understand, the glasses dont actually fix colorblindness, they just make the colors easier to distinguish and tell apart
that's all I'd need, I can see the colors I just can't distinguish blues from purples and red from green.
@@valchan2258 they don't even do that www.google.com/amp/s/phys.org/news/2018-10-scientists-debunk-effectiveness-enchroma-glasses.amp
Contrary to popular belief, most folks thing being colorblind means you only see black and white. there are ten levels of color vision, plus red green or blue yellow versions. We see colors, just not the same as you.
I can't imagine how this would feel being able to see colors for the first time. Or the ones of people hearing for first time. I've had perfect vision and hearing all my life.
Totally beautiful..reminds us how lucky we are having everything we take for granted is really a privilege
We need more videos like these. Everyone was so appreciative.
Number 9 was amazing to see. It’s sad, in a way, because you can tell that learning colors has been particularly tough on him. After he finally could see, he was calling some Yellows “blue” and mixing some colors around still. But that’s likely because learning colors has been tough, so he gets them confused in his head still.
This has to be among the best way to get someone to cry from genuine happiness there is!
Aww that man at the end - so overwhelmed, brought tears to my eyes
That’s cool these people can see new things but the most beautiful part is how much love these friends and family have for each other.
5:47 this kid is so cute and very appreciative towards his mom
he was my fav reaction lol
I'm pretty sure it's fake. He instantly knew what all the colours were even though he was colourblind. It's still possible for it to be real but I think it's fake.
He said this is white and this is black. And almost said turquoise
This reminds me to be grateful. Eyes full of tears. The blessing we take for granted.
My son was like this when he got his first vision glasses (not colourblind ones). He was 4, just gazing everywhere and going wow, wow, at everything. We were in town and I had to explain what was going on to the store keepers as he was acting so strange. He is 22 now but cannot get laser treatment as he vision is still too bad.
Of all the GARBAGE on the Internet today, this is a pearl. 🥰 You made ME cry. Good stuff. ❤️
