Why did it take 28 years for me to find out that I am color blind?

---

     I have to give props to the doctors over at Williamsburg Eye Care for performing the most thorough and professional eye exam I’ve had my entire life.  Somehow I had managed to go to at least six different eye doctors in my lifetime an have never taken the color blindness test.  Turns out that I am slightly color blind when it comes to seeing red and green colors.  A diagnosis that I share with 8% of the male population, according to Dr. Lodwick. 

     On top of being thorough and courteous, for the first time in my adult life the sales reps at the counter didn’t try to strong-arm me into buying my prescription from them if I could find it cheaper elsewhere.  A gesture, I appreciated so much, that I gave them my full business.

     The funny thing is that I actually stumbled across the actual diagnosis test online (see the link below) a few weeks ago.  This is nearly identical with the one I was given in the doctor’s office.  I failed it then too, but I chalked it up to my monitor not being calibrated correctly; guess I was wrong!
