Do You Have Trouble Perceiving Colours, Especially Distinguishing Between Red and Green? You May Have a Condition known as Color Blindness

Color blindness is usually an inherited condition characterized by a deficiency in the way some people perceive color. Color blindness occurs when certain cells in the eye’s retina do not respond to color as they should. Aging or disease can also damage retinal cells and lead to color blindness.

Red-green color deficiency is the most common form of color blindness, in which people have trouble distinguishing between the two colors. The condition affects men more than it does women.

Diagnosing color blindness in children is especially important as it can affect their learning and lead to various learning disabilities if its not detected.
