I was curious to know if anyone noticing this site has been diagnosed with complete achromatopsia, and if so, are there any drivers out there w/ the help of BiOptic lenses or otherwise that could give myself and my 13 year old son any hope that he could drive some day. This eye condition is so rare, that information regarding it, can be hard to find. ANY information regarding driving and achromaptopsia would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.
