Parents may notice colorblindness in a more severely affected child at the time the child would normally learn colors. Testing for colorblindness is commonly performed along with other vision screenings. There is no known treatment. People with this condition need to learn to cope. Colorblindness is a life-long condition.
Most affected people cope without difficulty.
Colorblindness may exclude people from some jobs, such as being a pilot, where color vision is essential.
