That might be really fun for you but for me I'd really be much more excited about being able to see colours well enough to achieve my life long aim of being a pilot. As well as avoiding 1000 tiny annoyances that come with not being colour normalative.

Maybe I'm just being sensitive but it's almost like someone was discussing a way to regrow a missing limb and you've come along to tell us you've always fancied a third hand.



In fairness, "always fancied a third hand" is a comment you'll find on prosthetic limb HN threads, including today.

I don't think one negates the other.


This makes about as much sense as complaining about cosmetic dentistry because you've lost a tooth.

Are you sure that colour blindness would still present an issue? I've heard that in recent years the requirements had been relaxed around this.


I'm sure.
