Setup

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the glasses and all accessories from the packaging. Inspect for any visible damage.
2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, gently wipe the lenses with the provided glasses muslin to remove any dust or smudges.
3. Attaching the Glasses Rope (Optional): If desired, attach the glasses rope to the ends of the temples to help secure the glasses around your neck when not in use.

Operating Instructions

These glasses are designed for individuals with Deutan (green-red) and Protan (red-green) color blindness. They are not a cure for color blindness but rather an aid to enhance color perception.

1. Wearing the Glasses: Place the glasses on your face as you would with regular eyeglasses. Ensure they sit comfortably on your nose bridge and behind your ears.
2. Initial Experience: The effect of the glasses may vary for each individual. Some users may notice an immediate difference in color vibrancy and saturation, while others may require a period of adjustment.
3. Optimal Use: For best results, use the glasses in environments with natural light. The specialized coating works by filtering specific wavelengths of light to differentiate colors more clearly.

Understanding Color Blindness Types

It is important to understand your specific type of color blindness (Deutan or Protan) to manage expectations regarding the effectiveness of these glasses. The following image illustrates common color blindness tests:

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the optical clarity of your glasses.

• Cleaning Lenses: Use the provided muslin cloth to gently wipe the lenses. For stubborn smudges, use a specialized lens cleaning spray designed for optical lenses and a clean microfiber cloth. Avoid using paper towels, clothing, or harsh chemicals, as these can scratch the lenses.
• Cleaning Frames: Wipe the TR90 frames with a soft, damp cloth.
• Storage: When not in use, store the glasses in the provided glasses box/cover to protect them from dust, scratches, and impacts.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Do not expose the glasses to extreme heat (e.g., leaving them in a hot car) or cold, as this can damage the frame material and lens coatings.

Troubleshooting

Limited or No Perceived Effect

• Verify Color Blindness Type: These glasses are specifically designed for Deutan and Protan types of color blindness. They may have limited or no effect on other forms of color vision deficiency.
• Environmental Conditions: Ensure you are using the glasses in well-lit environments, preferably with natural light. The effect may be less noticeable in dim or artificial lighting.
• Adaptation Period: Some individuals require an adaptation period. Try wearing the glasses for extended periods over several days to allow your brain to adjust to the enhanced color signals.

Discomfort or Poor Fit

• Adjusting Fit: The TR90 frames are generally flexible. If the fit is too tight or loose, a professional optician may be able to make minor adjustments.
• Nose Pads: Ensure the nose pads are positioned correctly and are not causing pressure points.

Scratched Lenses

• Prevention: Always store glasses in their case when not in use and clean only with the provided muslin cloth or a dedicated lens cleaner and microfiber cloth.
• Replacement: Scratched lenses cannot be repaired and may require replacement of the glasses.
