can coulour blindness be cured?!
Question:
i know this condition is inherited, but surley we can now treat this, laser? contact lenses?
Answers:
There is generally no treatment to cure color deficiencies, however, certain types of tinted filters and contact lenses may help an individual to distinguish different colors better.
This was an interesting fact I found: Color blindness is usually classed as a disability; however, in select situations color blind people have advantages over people with normal color vision. Color blind hunters are better at picking out prey against a confusing background, and the military have found that color blind soldiers can sometimes see through camouflage that fools everyone else. Monochromats may have a minor advantage in dark vision, but only in the first five minutes of dark adaptation.

Unfortunately it can't. Color blindess occurs when a part of the retina (won't describe it, it's a bit complicated) is missing, you just can't grow a new one.
Sorry but no colour blindness is non repairable many people suffer from it but continue to be unaffected by it "you cant miss what you've never had"
