No none at all to improve it. Different tinted lens may make color contrast easier to see. Certain examples yellow lens brighten things and are used in fog lights, ski glasses for overcast days. Skeet and trap shooters use different color lens to improve contrast often such colors as vermillion. Sunglasses that are grey or green change color perception less that other colors. And of course there is always the rose/pink tints that many people think softens vision and cheers them up "looking at life through rose colored glasses". None of these things will make the eye healthier or make a color deficient eye less color deficient.
