You Can Help Someone Experience Georgia in a New Way
For many people with red-green color vision deficiency, the vibrant colors of fall foliage, spring wildflowers, and Georgia's scenic landscapes may appear less distinct. EnChroma glasses use specialized optical filters designed to enhance color contrast, helping many people distinguish certain colors more easily.
Your support can help make these color accessibility glasses available to borrow at more Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites, giving more visitors the opportunity to experience the beauty and vibrant landscapes that make Georgia so special.
The Same View Can Look Very Different
This illustration shows how the same Georgia landscape may be perceived differently by someone with red-green color vision deficiency compared with someone with typical color vision.
This comparison is illustrative. Color vision deficiency varies by type and severity, and no single image represents every person’s experience.
