Is there a gadget that can calibrate your eyes just like your monitor?… I mean there is no point in having a good calibrated monitor if my eyes suck.
Glasses?????? :roll:

47 :( I felt quite dizzy after it, when checking my age group and gender
I didnt feel so bad it ranged from 0 to 1409. Interesting though the first
two lines were ok but the second two the colours were dancing around the
screen :)19 for me.
Not bad considering I had to take a letter home when I was in junior school saying I was colour blind and could never apply to become a pilot or a member of the police force or a customs official…. Not that I ever wanted to, but anyway!

16… I like black and white heaps better anyway :mrgreen:
Did you know… 1 in every 15 boys are colourblind but only 1 in every 1000 girls are. (or did I just make that up)
I’m taking 12 off my score for an uncalibrated monitor, 10 for a heavy weekend drinking, 5 for a late night last night and 5 cause I didn’t have my coffee yet.
Yay, I scored 0!!!!!

I thought colour blindness was restricted to the male of the species?
I think it is definitely more unusual for women to be colour blind. Especially if they inherit it from their father.
My dad and my uncle are both colour blind. I always thought I was as I failed those colour tests as a child – but I seem to have grown out of it or something?! Is that possible I wonder?!Must Google it… here we go:
# Although defective color vision may be acquired as a result of another eye disorder, the vast majority of color blind cases are hereditary – present at birth. The gene for this is carried in the X chromosome. Since males have an X-Y pairing and females have X-X, color blindness can occur much more easily in males and is typically passed to them by their mothers.
# Color blindness is rooted in the chromosomal differences between males and females. Females may be carriers of color blindness, but males are more commonly affected.nkeegan wrote:

Females may be carriers of color blindness, but males are more commonly affected.There was also a theory that there is a similar chromosonal explanation for women’s poor sense of direction – that while men might have a greater chance of being colourblind, at least we would be able to work out where we were going to.
(Sits back and waits for the deluge of criticism.)
