According to Color Blind Awareness, about 1 in 12 men, and 1 in 200 women experience color blindness. In such cases, special glasses are made for people which helps them see colours.
Recently, a video went viral in which a 12-year-old boy reacted after seeing colours for the first time.
In the video, a boy can be seen sitting in a classroom with his classmates and teachers. He removes his spectacles and wears special glasses and gets emotional for being able to see colors for the first time ever. He removes his glasses and wipes down the tears. People hug him and point him out to look at the periodic table. Then he compared his vision by repeatedly removing and wearing the glasses and continues to look around his surrounding. This video has left netizens teary-eyed.
