Color Blindness Treatment In India

Color blindness is a deficiency that usually does not allow individuals to see their color. Medically, it’s also known as color deficiency. The individual diagnosed with this condition cannot make a difference between green and red & sometimes it also includes blue. Visiting one of the top-rated Eye Hospital In Punjab helps the person better understand the problem and how it should be dealt with.

Color blindness occurs when color cone cells are absent in the count of 1 or more than that. The problem is triggered as it’s not working or seeing a different color compared to the normal one. Color blindness is categorized as follows:

  • Severe color blindness

All the three color cones are not working

  • Mild color blindness

All three cone cells are there, but one cell is not working effectively.

If you detect something wrong with your eye health or cannot see the color appropriately, you need to consult one of the Best Eye Doctors in Punjab to seek the proper assistance for your condition.

What are the common symptoms of colorblindness?

As mentioned above, color blindness can be severe to mild. For every individual, the condition varies, and accordingly, the extent of symptoms is different. Usually, parents are the one who notices something is wrong with their child’s color ability as they won’t be able to determine which color it is or not able to make a difference. Usually, the symptoms of colorblindness are:

  • Problem seeing colors like normal & unable to determine the color brightness effectively.
  • Won’t be able to decide on the difference in color with a similar tone.

Did you know?

Color blindness not just impacts vision sharpness, but the individual cannot see colors effectively, and everything they see is gray. Medically it’s referred to as achromatopsia.

What are the causes of color blindness?

When an individual is born with this issue, it’s called a congenital condition. Usually, the problem is passed on from mother to son. Not just that, the color vision problem is triggered in later life due to trauma, disease, the toxic effect of medication, vascular disease, and metabolic disease.

Who is at increased risk of color blindness?

The higher chances of color blindness are there when the baby is born from the woman who has it. Apart from that, specific health issues also increase the risk of getting the problem like:

  • glaucoma
  • Diabetes
  • Leukemia
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Chronic alcoholism
  • Sickle cell anemia
  • Macular degeneration
  • Alzheimer’s disease

Who diagnoses color blindness?

It would help if you visited an ophthalmologist to get a test and determine whether you have color blindness or not. The test checks your color blindness by seeing multi-colored dots.

Is there any treatment for color blindness?

NO! As the problem does not trigger any significant disability. However, special contact lenses and glasses are available that you can discuss with the doctor. The doctor will let you know about the medication or drug/ health issue that might have caused this problem. Schedule your initial consultation for better clarity over everything.
