[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 5386, member: 23"] Kids are resilient. I marvel at my son. Color blindedness can cause problems in school. "What Teachers, School Nurses, and Parents, Should Know About Being Colorblind" by Dr. Terrace L. Waggoner at [url="http://colorvisiontesting.com/color4.htm"]http://colorvisiontesting.com/color4.htm[/url] has info that may be helpful for you. [url="http://www.vischeck.com/daltonize/"]http://www.vischeck.com/daltonize/[/url] is a simulation of red/green color blindedness. I recall an instance where one member posted that her son's evaluation at school had to be redone because one of the tests performed was color sensitive and her son was colorblind. My son is red/green colorblind. An excerpt from a complaint to the sd: "difficult child failed a color-blinded test at school and was accused of lying about his misidentification of colors. The Occupational Therapist (OT) report stated, "It became clear that difficult child was not being honest in claiming that his vision was blurry or in naming correctly the colors and numbers of fingers he could see. The school counselor and the nurse spoke with difficult child about being honest and doing his best work on the Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation." The fact was that difficult child had complained previously about intermittent blurry vision. The fact is that he failed the color-blind test that I gave him on the computer. The fact is that I responded to this discovery by taking difficult child to a Pediatric Opthamologist. The fact is that difficult child was diagnosed with Dichromat aka known as red/green colorblindness. The fact is that all involved ....still owe my son an apology." It still makes my blood boil.
