Aw, Clover in the robots video is the exact duplicate of my Lucy Babushka.
Must be from that cat copying machine I saw a while ago.
Corrective lenses for colorblindness are not a scam. The expose video is the scam - see my extended comment on TYWIKIWDBI. Colorblindness runs in my family and my brother, who is an MD owns Enchroma lenses. I was with him when he first tried them on and he did have lots of “ooos” and suddenly saw things he never noticed before. He finds them helpful professionally. (I didn't mention it there, but he also finds them helpful as a photographer when he edits photos.)
Lois T, You mentioned your brothers partial(red/green) color blindness and how they help him in his medical career.
The scam is in the advertising. It's not directed at the people it can help with a vision problem, the marketing is straight at the general public promising a whole new colorful world view like it's a step up from mushrooms and acid.
