B. Sousa,

Color blindness is actually a hereditary condition where the receptors in the eye's retina are shifted in sensitivity. It is part of one's genetic makeup, it is not changable, and really shouldn't need yearly testing (unless you get an eyeball transplant!)

It occurs almost exclusively in males, BTW.
