1* Somehow Dwayne manages to reach his late teens without having a ''single eye test'' that would have picked up his colour blindness straight away.
2** I didn't get a formal color blindness test until I was 17. It is an optometrist's job to test for color blindness, especially for men, but it's usually looked over for everything else.
3*** Hell, I didn't have ''any'' sort of eye test until my late 20s. We find out just before the Color Blindness test that Dwayne has 20:20 vision. If he never had issues seeing things, he probably wouldn't have had any reason to have his eyes tested before.
4** What's more confusing is that Dwayne's parents seem to at least be aware of the possibility (among other hints, Richard starts gesturing wildly in the rearview mirror when Olive takes out the color blindness test). Why did they not have him tested or, at the very least, tell him he might be color blind?
