What is Colour Deficiency?
'Colour blindness' or colour deficiency affects over 3 million people in the UK in some form or another. Approximately 10% of males are colour deficient but only 0.6-0.8% of females are colour deficient. It is caused by a deficiency of certain chemicals in the retina of the eye.

How can ChromaGen™ help?
ChromaGen™ is a unique system of coloured lenses of a specific density and hue that are worn as either contact lenses or spectacles. For people suffering from colour deficiency or 'colour blindness', ChromaGen™ haploscopic filters work by changing the wavelength of each colour going into one or both eyes, which enhances colour perception and colour discrimination.

Colour Vision Test
If you can clearly see a number amongst the dots then you probably have good color vision: if not then you may have some color deficiency (or you do not have 256 color capabilities on your browser)
