What is another word for daltonism?
Pronunciation: [dˈɒltənˌɪzəm] (IPA) 
Daltonism is a condition where a person has difficulty distinguishing colors, specifically red and green. However, there are several synonyms for Daltonism such as color blindness, achromatopsia, color vision deficiency, and hemeralopia. These terms are often used interchangeably to describe the same condition, which affects approximately 8% of males and 0.5% of females. People with Daltonism often rely on other visual cues to distinguish colors, such as brightness and saturation. While there is no cure for Daltonism, there are assistive technologies available to help individuals with color vision deficiencies to navigate their daily lives, such as color-coded phone apps and color enhancers.
