variety of tasks, including reading, are used to determine the best
colour and make sure that the colour will not have negative effects
over time. Additional evaluation conducted to determine other problems
and to make recommendations.
Color is worn as glasses or contact lenses and does not color the
page or environment. Not like sunglasses and does not reduce clarity
of vision or change color perception while providing comfort. |
The
client looks into a box at a page of nonsense words and turns a
dial to project different colours onto a page. The client self-selects
a colour without professional guidance. The client must know what
is best for him/her and be able to remember the effects of the different
colors without being able to directly compare the colours and with
no professional assistance.
The color is worn as glasses and can change color perception and
reduce contrast sensitivity and can only be used for reading. |
