[QUOTE="Yusra3, post: 302796, member: 31907"] Color blindness is caused by a lack of certain receptors in the eye. These receptors are responsible for detecting color and converting it into electrical signals that are sent to the brain. The three most common causes of color blindness are: • Genetic: Color blindness can be hereditary, meaning that you're born with it. The chances of having one of your parents affected with this condition are 25% to 50%. • Inherited: If your parents or grandparents have also been diagnosed with color blindness, there's a greater chance you'll have it yourself. The chances increase to 75% if both parents and grandparents were affected. • Environmental: Exposure to certain chemicals or drugs during pregnancy can cause some women to pass on their condition to their children. This is called X-linked inheritance and affects up to 1 in 4 men and 1 in 2 women who carry this gene variant. [/QUOTE]
