Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a visual communication student. This is not a question related to my health, but it is related to a project I am working on, and it would be helpful if you share your knowledge with me. I was planning to do a print, which could be read with a specific lens for all the audience. Otherwise, it cannot be read. Is it possible?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Do you plan to do a project with the 3D effect? Polaroid glasses with polarity 90 apart are often used to this effect. This will make it necessary for the audience to wear glasses or lenses to perceive images. You can use this to make hidden things appear. You can read about TNO test (a random-dot stereo test) we use for depth perception and plan something along those lines. Prisms are one thing you can experiment with. Also, you can make color deficient images, which change hue when viewed through specific colored glasses.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
