Erik Rouk hasn't added a story.
My name is Erik and I want to give my father the gift of colour
My father's parents discovered that he was colour blind when he had trouble finding a red ball playing outside on the lawn. Years later I would help him solving puzzles that did not take into account colourblindness in their design, help describe colours in the shop, and navigate the various colour markers on maps.
Recently, I learned about Enchroma and I feel that this would be the perfect gift. More so because we now live in different countries and it would be great to surprise him and make our time together that much more worthwhile. We will be meeting on a trip abroad in June and I would love to enhance this experience with colour!
I have never tried crowdfunding before but I'm hoping to give this a shot and be able to give my father an amazing gift! Can we do it in slightly over 30 days? I think we can! Please help me in achieving this small dream :)
WHAT IS ENCHROMA?
Enchroma glasses are an optical assistive device; they are not a cure for color blindness. Results vary depending on the type and extent of color vision deficiency per individual. The glasses are estimated to be effective for 4 out of 5 cases (80%) of red-green color vision deficiency – prospective users are encouraged to take our online color vision test to assess the likelihood of efficacy. Enchroma does not endorse use of the glasses to pass occupational screening tests such as the Ishihara test. For more information please read the FAQs , learn about the Enchroma technology and story , or contact customer support .
