EnChroma glasses open up a world of color

from On The Record · host WYPR 88.1 FM Baltimore

Have you enjoyed splashy fall colors this season? People who are colorblind miss out on some of that autumn bliss. EnChroma glasses allow those with ‘color vision deficiency’ see a fuller spectrum. We ask Don McPherson, inventor of  the glasses, how they work -- and learn about a new test for color blindness. You can find the test here. EnChroma Glasses are available on loan at Brookside Gardens in Montgomery County. More information here.Do you have a question or comment about a show or a story idea to pitch?
