I just read about this amazing new treatment that a doctor in Maryland has come up with to help people with color deficient vision (aka "color blindness") be able to see color. Dr. Thomas Azman has developed a set of color corrective lenses that alter the wavelengths of light so that the rods and cones of the eye are able to distinguish between different colors. He claims to have had a 100% success rate and guarantees that his patients will be able to pass the Ishihara Color Plate Test (the gold standard in color deficient vision testing).
Dr. Azman currently only has one location in Maryland, and is the only one offering this service, so people that want to use this service must go to him. However, if his lenses work as claimed, I foresee a lot of optomitrists and opthomologists signing up to offer this service to their patients.
The process is not a corrective surgery, but rather a set of corrective lenses which can be made as either glasses or contacts. To read more about this amazing new technology, visit Dr. Azman's web site.
