    I love how they allowed him to process it and not be bossy about what to do. Its very overwhelming and lots of these videos they are screaming to leave them on and demand they look at things. Awesome guy with a great sense of humor

    These videos always make me tear up! I often wonder how much of their emotion comes from the shock of seeing new colors or the sadness of realizing that they went all of those years not seeing the full spectrum before. What a nice man and I am so happy for him!

    He starts off not very excited - names all the balloon colors as if it wasn't a big deal - then to my surprise, suddenly gets very emotional. I didn't expect that.

    • @dtiydr
      @dtiydr 5 років тому +5

      Its that the brain hasn't relayed the new information to the conscious part of the brain yet so he doesn't know what he is doing sort of speak. But when he did this the conscious part relays that information back to the not conscious part and is thus looped back and tells that part what he was able to do that he never had been able to before.

      Like I just got done watching a video where the guy couldn't see red/green properly. It all just looked brown to him, till he tried the glasses. Then BAM! pink, red, purple. and all the various shades of green have meaning :P (but he never had a problem with blue, so it wasn't earth shattering to see the ocean or anything)

    • @eolsunder
      @eolsunder 8 років тому +4

      pretty simple. Your eyes have 3 types of "cones" that register the colors red, blue and green. You tell different shades of color and different pigments the same way, such as purple, orange, etc. Colorblind people have problems with certain cones especially the ones that see reds and greens. This is why many can still see blue fine, and yellow sometimes. So because many have problems seeing the reds and greens correctly, the glass's are made to split the lightwaves so that the red and green light is separated and can be seen easier with the weakened colorblind cones. Similar to how a prism works. If you just look at light you can't really see red, blue, etc but if you filter the light through a prism now suddenly you can see the colors. It's still the same light but just split so you can see it. The glass's split up the red and green light before it enters their eyes so their weakened cones can now see it and register it normally.

    He later says, when he looks outside, ‘what an ugly day’ as a joke.
    His guess was good when he saw certain colours for the first time: the pink, purple, the blue and the red and orange.
    The yellow seem to get mixed up with green. Everything is a learning experience.

    I've watched several of these videos now, they're quite fascinating and heart-warming (thanks for uploading this one!).
    One thing I may never understand is when someone with the glasses points at a new-to-them colour and then says "That's red/purple/...". How do they know which formerly unseen colour is which? Sure, they must have heard the names all their lives, but they haven't perceived them yet, or have they?
    (I do understand that colourblind people can see some colours normally, just not all.)

      Colorblindness is carried on the X-chromosome. Females are XX and men are XY. If a female has one color-deficient X, the other X will do the job, but they will be "carriers". Then each son will have a 50/50 chance of being colorblind. Very seldom does a female get a bad X from both her mother AND father.

      @ElSheaO  Рік тому

      We asked him that! So with his color blindness, he can see some colors. He can see blues and yellows, but reds and greens are very murky and usually just show up as muted shades of the colors he can see. But he’s had it for so long that he knows what colors are supposed to be what. So for example, he knows red is supposed to be super bright, and doesn’t look like what he sees as blue and yellow, and he knows that pink is a lighter shade of red. So it’s kind of a process of elimination.
