So don't worry
That's reassuring. Though and to give you all a good giggle I have green glasses ... can be quite amusing when I forget there on and wander around the office with dark green glasses on while outside its pissing it down. My first set were pink so I got called John Lennon for a while ... not good lol
Also in case anyone is wondering and doesn't know, the need for coloured lenses or paper is due to the inabilty to read black writing on a white backgroud. It is called Myres Irlen Syndrome or just Irlen Syndrome 
very common among dyslexics I believe.Its the calulations I have problems with and the conversions, I might see about spending some more time refreshing my recording skills and conversions. But thanks for the reassurance
