    Read and be grateful !

    Spotted this article today. I had never heard of this before but it made realise how lucky I am to have "normal" vision. (The article will explain why "normal" is in quotes.)

    I well remember doing those colour chart tests and insisting that the number amongst the dots was a 3 and not an 8; a 7 and not a 9. That's when I still harboured dreams of being a police officer upon leaving school. Those tests confirmed that I'd never realise that dream.

    Interesting. I did the test in the article and found I am slightly blue green colour blind. As the article says, not a diagnostic test on a home computer but still interesting.

    Aah I'm colour blind, tritan apparently but actually I'm not; I just can't see very well. Got 108 and now maybe you can understand the slight green hue in some of my images.
