Abstract

Dear Editor-in-Chief: Color vision deficiency (CVD) occurs when there is an error in the development of one or more types of retinal cone cells that receive color in light and transmit that information to the optic nerve. Among them, red-green CVD shows the highest prevalence. Red-Green CVD is divisible into severe or dichromatic forms [protanopia and deu-teranopia] and milder or anomalous trichromatic forms [protanomaly and deuteranomaly]. Color is used as a systematic identifier in some learning systems in school. In addition, students start growing their interest in career selection at school level. It is regrettable that a large section of school students are not aware of their color vision status. CVD does not cause complete blindness and there is no available therapeutics that can treat CVD. However, employment in certain professions like working as pilot, loco driver, traffic police, defense servant and a few others require a normal color vision as their eligibility criterion and hence color blind persons are likely to be rejected from such professions.
