NFORMATION OF
COLORBLIND
Let's
start with a little bit of statistics. About 8% of Аll men and about 2% of all
women are suffering from color blindness (colour vision deficiency). This means
chances that your neighbour or one of your classmates is colorblind are very
high.
There are
three types of color blindness we can help:
- Deuteranomaly - Deutan color vision
deficiencies are by far the most common forms of color blindness. This subtype
of red-green color blindness is found in about 6% of the male population,
mostly in its mild form deuteranomaly.
-
Protanomaly - Red-green color blindness
is split into two different types: Whereas people affected by protan color
blindness are less sensitive to red light.
- Tritanomaly - People affected by tritan color
blindness confuse blue with green and yellow with violet. So the term
blue-green color blindness would be most accurate because the colors blue and
yellow are usually not mixed up by tritanopes.
Dalton is software allowing people with different kinds of
color blindness (colour vision deficiency) to see more colors.
Dalton provides solutions to some of the everyday problems
experienced by colour blind people. People with various types of colour
deficiency could benefit from the use of Dalton software including those
affected by Tritanopia (blue colour vision deficiency), Deuteranopia (green),
Protanopia (red).
People generally have the assumption that if you suffer from
blue-yellow color blindness these are the only colors you have trouble seeing.
But that’s wrong. Color blindness doesn’t relate to just two color shades you
can’t distinguish, it is the whole color spectrum which is affected.
