Is jeromeASF really colour blind?

Yes.


Can a child be born blind if the father is fully blind in his right eye?

it is extremely rare that blindness is passed on through heredity. Any child can be born blind, regardless of whether or not the parents are sighted. Unless there is a strong family history of blindness in the father's family, there is probably nothing to worry about.


Can girls be colour blind?

Yes but it is more likely in males. The reason for this is women have two X chromosomes, and men have one X and one Y chromosome. The gene for color sight is found on the X chromosome. If a woman has a defective gene on her X chromosome, she has another to back it up. If a man has a defective gene on his X chromosome, he does not. Both X chromosomes have to be defective in the same way for a woman to be color blind, which is the reason why it is so rare. Male colorblindness, on the other hand, is quite common because the gene is not necessary and therefore the people with it don't get weeded out of the Gene Pool. If a necessary gene is defective, you die, and it does not get passed on. It has to mutate again.


What was the chance that the child will be color blind?

1 in 12 for men, 1 in 200 for women.


What is a blind trial?

A blind trial is a trial in which the subject does not know if he is part of the experimental group or the control group. In the case of a pharmaceutical trial, a blind study would be one in which the patients participating in the study would not know if they were being given the actual drug or a placebo. A double-blind trial is one in which neither the patients nor the doctors involved in the study know which patients are in the control group and which patients are in the experimental group.
