Complete color blindness is untreatable. Color blindness is an autosomal genetic disorder; although it cannot be cured, individuals with color blindness can wear color-correcting glasses to achieve color vision correction without interfering with daily activities or work. The fundamental principle of these glasses involves optical compensation for color impedance: a special thin film is applied to the lens surface, enabling selective transmission or reflection of light at different wavelengths.
