What a lovely video, I think your dad could see pretty big changes but he’s an understated guy so he is keeping it very lowkey. That’s such a great plan to start a charitable foundation.

They may help you differentiate certain colors. But they do that by filtering out other colors. It kind of makes you more color blind in a way. But because the people are seeing these colors differently. They're convinced that it's helping them.

He likes to keep busy...usually doing something. these days he enjoys going to big stores like Walmart and just walking around. gets him moving and out of the house.

it's things like this that really make you think what exactly is orange? this man would have gone his whole life attributing orange with something completely different to what orange in reality is, based on his perception. Makes you think exactly if anything is really 'true' how can we be so sure that the rest of us actually know what orange or anything else is as a definitive proof but just that . Is orange to me the same as orange to you? How does one actually describe a color? What if this helps attribute to the fact people can have so many differing views on what colors are nice or not beyond just basic preference or personal tastes? What if the reason say I could find blue absolutely breathtaking is because my blue is completely unique to what others perceive as blue. Or how others can say their favorite color is something like pink and i have to question myself "are you actually seeing what i am seeing?" lol It really makes you think about things in a whole new light.
