Eye Defects: Causes and Treatments
Colour blindness is a condition in which we cannot recognise between some shades of colours. Different types of colour deficiency can be categorised into three main categories
1. Red – green colour blindness
2. Blue – yellow colour blindness
3. Very rare complete colour blindness
The most common colour blindness is red-green colour blindness, which involves the deficiency to identify between the Shades Of Red and Green colours. Blue-yellow colour blindness causes an inability to differentiate between blue and yellow colours along with Red and Green. Scientifically known as monochromacy, complete colour blindness is very rare. It leaves visual acuity mostly blind.
Colour blindness is caused by to defect in the genetic setup maintaining the function of cone cells, which helps in identifying colours.
In short, colour blindness cannot be cured. But it can be reduced using specially engineered spectacles which alter colours.
Most people with colour blindness can conceive the world just like normal people, but only some differences in differentiating colours. Scientists are still trying to find an absolute remedy to this condition.
