Color-Vision and Color-Blindness
Special public attention was called to the subject in 1875 by an enquiry into the causes of a railway accident which had taken place in Sweden, from which it appears that colourblindness was the cause of the disaster.

متن کاملGene Therapy for Color Blindness
Achromatopsia is a rare congenital cause of vision loss due to isolated cone photoreceptor dysfunction. The most common underlying genetic mutations are autosomal recessive changes in CNGA3, CNGB3, GNAT2, PDE6H, PDE6C, or ATF6. Animal models of Cnga3, Cngb3, and Gnat2 have been rescued using AAV gene therapy; showing partial restoration of cone electrophysiology and integration of this new phot...
