Color Blindness and Scuba Diving
Eye sight deteriorates as we age. As divers, we understand colors of the spectrum are lost as we decend.
I never realy thought how the two might be related, until I came across this on another site about Diving Medicine.

Hope it helps.

Well, it IS important.
We as divers can benefit from the information. Particularly as we get older.
Need to understand the facts,

Crap. I'm colorblind. Very interesting test, though. I liked how they tell you what "abnormal" color vision sees.
