Can a 6-year-old kid (colorblind) use this sort of glasses?

I have impaired color vision and these lenses did not help me with color vision at all

no they are not useful for color blindness in general. they make a difference only for two things 1 finding veins with greater ease and 2 passing the colour blind test. Nothing else. I would not advice they be used for every day vision as they make no significant difference.

I bought these as a gift for a friend of mine. He is a 50 year old man who has been colour blind all his life. He loves the glasses and wears them all the time especially for driving as he he says the colour enhancement is amazing. As a man myself, I am bordering colour blind and cannot pass the Ishihara colour blind test. When the lenses were delivered here I tried them myself and passed hte test easily. So I would recommend them. For reference the lenses are quite thick and would not be easy to break by children.

I lent the glasses to others who are not red/green colorblind and it was not effective for them. One was blue/brown colorblind and I can't recall what the other was.

The tint changes across the face of the goggle. It starts one color and fades through some other colors. I was not sure my son would like them but they were the only "mirrored" pair that would fit him as he is only 12. Any other options I found were way too expensive for a gift that he will outgrow. He loves them though and they look great.

Every case of colorblindness is different so you should consult your eye care provider. However, based upon my experiences, I would strongly recommend against it. For most people, these, and other glasses like them only help with certain shades of green, pink, red and purple. Relying on them for such a job could be dangerous.

I use them for driving but I do not see why they could not be used for any glasses. I doubt you would see much difference using them for reading. Blue blockers are most effective when they filter out the blue in outdoor vision.

I would say no. I mean the strap could be tightened enough to make them stay on the kids head, but the lens cannot change or bend easily and would still be too big to protect the kids eyes from all angles.

Yes, I think so. My boy is 2 and the sunglasses are fine now in his face....but I don't think that they will last more than 2 years...they are very small. Try a size bigger. Good luck!

I have no personal experience with these lenses and am not color-blind myself. The Popular Science article quotes some color-blind people who claim it works for them, but it may be limited to certain types of color-blindness, and results will probably vary per person.

I have a very petite 4-year old and the glasses fit her well. I would say they are a "tiny" bit large (she pushes them up occasionally) but I wouldn't want it to be perfect since she is growing daily. I expect they will last for a few years.

Yes, the eye pieces fold together and nearly touch. I think you could easily adjust them for a child.

NO, they are glass and I would say, not for children, that might drop and break. I order to use them with my crafts. Good Luck. Billie

No. You want the "Oxy-Iso Colorblindness Correction Medical Glasses" Oxy-Iso Colorblindness Correction Glasses

All passive 3d glasses should be compatible. Other than red and cyan, of course.

Not to my knowledge...these are simply safety lens glasses designed for shooters. The don't have the normal 'bridge' in the nose that would inhibit a person from picking up a target coming in at an angle. Different colors are designed for shooting under different light conditions at a target range. I do use these with my contact lenses but you'll need to take your prescription to an optician and have them make up a set of shooting glasses. There's usually an optician somewhere in your general area that specialized in shooting glasses. Hope this helps.
