Pauline You might advise him to see an Optometrist as there's now research to suggest that prescribing coloured contact lenses can solve the problem.

This particular student is doing a media arts course which is causing him a few difficulties. He needs to use photoshop but has trouble telling what colours he is using and has found for example that he has handed in assignments that were supposed to be in blue and are in pink. He's also finding it difficult to use the music studios as they are colour coded. I have suggested that maybe we could use 'bump ons' that felt different and make a tactile code for him. If anyone else has any bright ideas, please let me know. Regards Pauline Pauline McInnes Disability Co-ordinator Disability Team Student Services St Mary's Road Ealing London W5 5RF Tel: 0208 231 2058
