Many people who are colorblind are actually color defi cient, which means they have diffi culty distinguishing certain hues. Strongly colorblind people may only be able to distinguish about 20 different shades of colors, while those with healthy color vision can differentiate more than 100 hues. Men are more likely to experience colorblindness than women, but the gene for colorblindness is passed by the X chromosome. Colorblindness is often of the red-green variety, but blue- yellow colorblindness also is possible. General doctors or optometrists and opthalmologists use a simple test to determine colorblindness. The test asks patients to distinguish a letter or number against a colored background. There is no cure for colorblindness, though wearing colored contacts may sharpen a person's ability to distinguish color hues. DID YOU KNOW? DID YOU KNOW?
