In fact, because of his work, for some time a common term for color blindness was “Daltonism,” and the French for “color blind” is “Daltonien.” Want the text version?: http://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/11/150-years-jar-fascinating-story-john-daltons-eyeballs/ Sources: http://vision.psychol.cam.ac.uk/jdmollon/papers/DaltonsEye.pdf http://www.biography.com/people/john-dalton-9265201#early-life-and-career http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Dalton#Colour_blindness http://www.sciencephoto.com/media/224440/view http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v154/n3919/abs/154741a0.html http://www.intropsych.com/ch04_senses/theories_of_color_vision.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Young_(scientist) http://www.eyepedia.co.uk/eyes-vision/eye-anatomy/internal-eye/vitreous-humour/ http://science-edu.larc.nasa.gov/EDDOCS/Wavelengths_for_Colors.html Image Credit: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:John_Dalton_by_Charles_Turner.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Dalton_John_desk.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Johndaltonfrsmem00lonsrich_0012.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Young_Thomas_Lawrence.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Th
