SYDNEY, Aug 22 — Museums are increasingly coming up with strategies to make their facilities more accessible to visitors with disabilities. A recent example is Chau Chak Wing Museum in Australia: this art institution now offers colour-blind visitors special glasses that allow them to better distinguish the paintings in front of them.

In Western countries, it is estimated that 8-10 per cent of men suffer from it, compared to 0.4 per cent of women. In Australia, this represents more than 1 million people. In the interest of accessibility, the Chau Chak Wing Museum at the University of Sydney has partnered with American company EnChroma to provide specially designed glasses to colour-blind visitors. These glasses allow visually impaired individuals to see colours they cannot usually distinguish.

Many visitors with colour blindness like Tim Robinson have been able to take advantage of it, much to their delight.
