This is the touching moment a man sees colours for the first time at an art exhibition with the help of special glasses.

The footage, captured on February 10 at the Sam Noble Museum in Oklahoma, shows 27-year-old Andrew observing paintings as he walks around an exhibition wearing Enchroma glasses, which help enhance colour vision in those with colour blindness.

"Is this what brown looks like?" Andrew asks at one point.

"Oh my god! It seems the colours are jumping out!" he says.

The young man is fascinated as he peers at the paintings and breaks down in tears.

His mother writes: ''We bought his glasses for his birthday in January.

''This was the first real experience with so many colours in one place.

''He was overwhelmed.''
