Almost no one. Most of us are able to see some color, but not necessarily accurately. The problem is actually color deficiency, being unable to differentiate reliably between certain colors. Most common is trie problem; color-deficient people usually see similar shades of grey. What makes this serious is that our traffic lights are red and green.

Folks who can't really see the color have to leam how to interpret what they do see in order to cross the street or drive a car safely. Ask your optometrist about the 'color test. What's used most often is a chart in which ordinary numbers made up of various shades of green dots are integrated into a background of various shades of red dots. For most of it's not difficult at all to make out me numbers and read the chart. Those who have difficulty with the test are color-deficient to some extent.

For reasons unknown, men are more likely to be colorblind than women. Brought to you as a community service oy Dr. Cecil Huneycutt Optometrist 15-6 East Plaza 903-784-6649 Martin-Sheppard Mrs. Sandra Martin of Clarksville and Mr. Douglas B.
