Abstract :
Color vision deficiency (CVD) is a disorder in which patients cannot distinguish specific colors. In the last few decades, the researchers have attempted to find a solution to cure this deficiency, despite valuable attempts by scientists, a promising and effective remedy has not been attained yet. As curing of CVD with the tinted or dyed glasses and lenses in colorblind patients is not satisfying, in this work, we have studied a novel and simple method using plasmonic gold nanoparticles in the contact lenses to improve CVD based on surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles in the visible spectral range. In this technique, the dispersion of gold particles into the contact lens and transforming them to plasmonic gold nanoparticles provides a color filter that can be applied in the correction of the red-green type of colorblindness.The modified lens blocks a narrow band centered at 560nm, the wavelength that vision spectra of CVD patients overlap at those ones.
