Rave Reviews for Inexpensive Color Blindness Test

    /24-7PressRelease/ - MENLO PARK, CA, November 15, 2007 - It is estimated that one in twelve men and one of very 225 women is colorblind. Chances are most Americans know someone who is colorblind. For those in the medical, education fields, or those with family members who are colorblind, awareness of how people with color blindness see and react to color is very important. Traditional tests and screening devices are generally very expensive, and most are not educationally useful. To tackle these problems, the Color Vision Store has re-released its highly acclaimed Color Vision Guide.

The Color Vision Guide is favored in occupational health clinics over expensive, bulky color vision tests. The guide is used during pre-placement physicals to screen for common color vision defects that could be an issue in many professions, including pilots, truck drivers, and those in the color printing industry. And because the guide is printed on a single laminated sheet and contains many facts about color blindness, patients enjoy reading the guide while waiting for their exam.

The National Science Teachers Association publication "Science and Children" said, "the Color Vision Guide is an introductory, non-medical guide to color blindness for children, parents, and educators. The guide presents clear text and computer generated, four-color illustrations and charts that you can use to test adults and children for color blindness. The guide is laminated, making it durable and helping to keep the tests clean and clear."

And Dr. Dean Edell, America's Doctor, said, "Because color blindness may be overlooked by parents and teachers, the Color Vision Guide raises the awareness of this learning disability by making available a simple chart based on traditional colorblindness tests used by professionals. Hopefully parents and teachers will use it."

The Color Vision Guide is available for $9.95, with discounts for 10 or more, at http://www.colorblind.to.

Color vision deficiency, or color blindness, is poorly understood by most Americans and few could tell of the possible problems facing the color deficient person.
