There is no treatment for color vision deficiency, nor is it usually the cause of any significant disability. Actually, most color deficient persons compensate well for their defect. At one time the U.S. Army found that colorblind persons can spot 'camouflage' colors where those with normal color vision are fooled by them. In fact, a reduction in color signals makes the differences in texture and brightness more apparent.
