Abstract: Color blindness is a common visual abnormality or deficiency disease that is usually caused by genetic factors. Color blind patients have different degrees of reduced color recognition, which affects their life and work. At present, color blindness optical correction and gene therapy to restore color vision functions need to be verified. And with the development of computer vision science and artificial intelligence, the application of color blindness correction has become a new method. This article summarizes the current treatment and correction methods for color blindness, so that ophthalmologists and computer engineering technicians can have a better understanding of them, which will help to advance the best color blindness correction measures and improve the quality of life of people with color blindness.
