See the World in Full Colour at Dr. Zargar Eyecare

Colour plays an important role in how we learn, communicate, and experience the world, but for those with colour vision deficiency (CVD), daily tasks like reading signs, choosing clothing, or interpreting graphics can feel frustrating or confusing. 

At Dr. Zargar Eyecare, we offer real solutions to help you or your child see more of the colour spectrum, starting with a precise diagnosis and a chance to try EnChroma glasses.

Contact us to schedule your eye exam today and find out if EnChroma glasses are right for you.

What Is Colour Blindness?

Colour blindness, or colour vision deficiency, affects the ability to distinguish between certain colours, most commonly reds and greens. It occurs when the cone cells in the retina responsible for colour perception don’t respond properly to specific wavelengths of light. 

This condition is often inherited and can range from mild to severe. Although colour blindness doesn’t typically affect the sharpness of vision, it can make everyday tasks more challenging, especially for children in school or people in colour-sensitive professions.

How We Diagnose Colour Vision Deficiency

Dr. Zargar Eyecare uses colour vision testing during your comprehensive eye exam to determine the type and severity of CVD. Identifying colour blindness early, especially in children, can help us recommend the best tools and accommodations for school and daily life.

Signs of colour blindness may include:

  • Poor results on colour vision screening tests
  • Difficulty telling red from green or blue from yellow
  • Trouble interpreting colour-coded charts or maps

EnChroma Glasses: A Breakthrough for Colour Vision

EnChroma glasses are innovative lenses that use patented light-filtering technology to enhance colour contrast for people with red-green colour blindness. While not a cure, they can dramatically improve colour perception for many users, helping you see a more vibrant world.

EnChroma glasses:

  • Filter out overlapping light wavelengths that confuse the brain
  • Improve contrast between colours
  • Help wearers see reds and greens more distinctly

These glasses come in both indoor and outdoor lenses, and they’re available in prescription and non-prescription options. Most importantly, they’re easy to try and experience for yourself.

Try EnChroma at Dr. Zargar Eyecare

We’re proud to be a provider of EnChroma glasses in Richmond Hill. During your visit, we can:

  • Assess your type of colour vision deficiency
  • Provide an EnChroma trial experience
  • Help you find the best EnChroma lens and frame options

Not everyone with colour blindness will benefit from EnChroma, but for those who do, the results can be amazing. Whether you’re curious about colour blindness, concerned about your child’s colour vision, or eager to experience the world more vividly, we’re here to help.
