This colourblind woman who receives Enchroma glasses for her 20th birthday is amazed when she looks at a brightly-coloured mural. <br /><br />Savannah Cottom, from Oklahoma, was given the colour-correcting specs as a gift after years of wanting to own a pair. <br /><br />Video shows the moment she goes with her family to gaze at a brightly-coloured mural.<br /><br />She is amazed and points out colours that she has never seen before. <br /><br />Savannah shares the glasses with her father, who is also colourblind. <br /><br />"We both were especially shocked by the true reds and pinks," Savannah said. "I am so excited that I have these glasses and a fun video to remember that special day when I saw true colour for the first time."<br /><br />Although approximately one in 12 men has colour blindness, the condition among women is very rare. <br /><br />But Savannah uses this as an advantage and takes a keen interest in the condition. <br /><br />She says: "I always loved learning about the eyes and how colourblindness works. <br /><br />"Now, as a college student at the University of Oklahoma, my major is Biology Pre-Med.<br /><br />She adds: "Part of me likes being a colourblind girl because it is so rare, and I always have a good fun fact for icebreaker games.<br /><br />"Sometimes my colourblindness has led to funny, yet embarrassing stories. <br /><br />"Once, I attended a breakfast filled with senators, politicians, past governors and more with pink eyebrows because I had mistaken my pink liquid matte lipstick for eyebrow filler, and couldn't notice the difference!"<br /><br />The video was filmed on May 12.<br /><br />+MUSIC IS ROYALTY-FREE+
