How possible is it that a cure will be found?

According to the Medical College of Wisconsin, gene therapy is the best way to cope with color blindness. Jay Neitz, PhD, who is a Professor of Cellular Biology, Neurology, and Anatomy at the Medical College of Wisconsin said, "I'm sure that, ultimately, gene therapy will cure colorblindness." She also said, "It's not a matter of whether it will or not, it's a matter of when. I think the probability is extremely high."
I too believe in her statement. Even though there is little treatment now, there is still help. You can ask a health professional where you can take gene therapy at. I am positive, with all of the scientific discoveries being made, that someone will be the person to find a cure. Whether it be surgery, glasses, or an extra set of eyes, there is still hope.
