I have, yes. I can describe it sort of like this:

Imagine you're watching a black-and-white movie on an old TV, and it looks kind of washed out. You fiddle with the contrast, and suddenly the movie looks much crisper and with better contrast. You're not actually seeing more colors -- its just grayscale -- but you can optimize it to give you more depth of perception.

That's what EnChroma does. It doesn't actually make you see red, but it heightens the contrast to make it stand out more.

That's what I imagined it to be, a slight improvement but obviously no miracle.

So, does it just look like different green? Like still green, but you can tell it apart from "true" green? Like wearing them could you pass a colorblind test even though you still can't see red?

i can see reds and greens, but very similar shades next to each other, i can't tell. i also can't see either color very well when it's a really small sample size (for example, the green under my power switch on my wireless mouse to show that it's on).

the way i think about it is that people who aren't colorblind have a maximum green value that is much higher than mine. the enchroma glasses, which i've tried, effectively make greens more green. i feel like it makes things inaccurately colored, but exaggerates colors enough to be able to better differentiate. i still can't see past my "maximum green" value though, which is why those marketing videos of people crying are total bullshit. it just looks like a very saturated instagram filter. it doesn't make me see colors i haven't seen before.

i didn't try a color blindness test with them but i should have. the best memory i have of using it is that it was fall time and the leaves on a bush in my yard were turning red, but i had no idea until i put the glasses on, and i could distinctly tell which leaves were turning and which weren't.

i liked them and wanted to keep them, but i couldnt justify the $220 price or whatever it was, so i returned them. i want to get another pair some day
