Default Color vision corection

I came across this site from another message board. They claim to be able to give you a 100% pass rate on the Ishihara exam. What do you think?

No way!!!!!!!!!!!! The use of color filters is not legal for the FAA.

8% of males have color vision deficiency that is hereditary. There is no way they can change your genetic make-up -- at least not yet.
