Glasses That Hack Around Colorblindness

MatthewVD writes "In 2006, researcher Mark Changizi came up with a novel theory for why humans evolved with color vision: to detect social cues and emotions in others. He built glasses called 02Amps to enhance perception of blood pooling. Some hospitals have tried using the glasses to see bruising that's not visible unaided, or help nurses find veins. But it turns out now that the glasses might be able to fix some forms of colorblindness, too."

Wanted: single-eye correction

I'd want single-eye correction. The uncorrected eye will see spectra that are filtered by this lens.

By the way, I've been told by doctors for at least 20 years that a magenta tint sometimes helps. This isn't really new art.
