Truck Changed Colors!!!

wow, i walked out of the eye doctors today from getting my new glasses, and my truck was a diff shade of red! i like it better now lol. i'm color blind (well, deficient) and never could see colors right. now i have red lenses (people tell me i look like a young john lennon) but i can see colors correct. now lights actually look like they turn green, not clear, and green dont look orange, and blue dont look purple! its amazing

Wow I never heard of any one else having this problem. Same thing with the traffic lights. They look clear like a headlight insted of green. Same thing with the blue and purple. I have been thinking about getting some new glasses its been about five years since I got this pair. Do you know what type of lens lets you ghange tints?
