DESCRIPTION

From Google Play Store and iTunes Store

“Are you color blind? Did you know that there are actually three distinct types of color blindness? Unlike other freely available tests which are simple pass-fail screening tests, the EnChroma test uses the principles of color vision science to measure the type and extent of color vision deficiency.

This test was created by the EnChroma team to assist in the correct recommendation of color enhancing eyewear products. EnChroma, Inc. is a Berkeley, CA company that makes innovative eyewear products for medical, industrial and lifestyle markets. EnChroma eyewear products are based on an advanced multi-band spectral filtering technology that is computer-optimized for use with specific types of color vision.

On completion of the test, the type and extent of color vision deficiency will be reported, along with a recommendation for which EnChroma eyewear products are best optimized for use with your vision. A copy of your result can be sent by email from this app.”
