Background: Two significant components of vision are color vision and depth perception. Color vision deficiencies, such as red-green color blindness, affect a substantial portion of the population, with estimates suggesting that 8% of men and 0.5% of women globally are affected. color vision deficiencies are not limited to traffic signals alone but can extend to road signs, vehicle signals, and even pedestrians’ clothing. In the context of Delhi-NCR, where traffic congestion is rampant and the driving environment is often chaotic, the ability to recognize and respond to these visual cues is crucial for avoiding accidents.
