A color image sensing apparatus and a method of processing an infrared-ray signal are provided. The image sensing apparatus includes: a color filter array including a plurality of color filter units, each color filter unit including a red-pass filter passing red light, a green-pass filter passing green light, and a blue-pass filter passing blue light, and at least one of the red-, green- and blue-pass filters passing infrared-rays; an image sensor for providing an image signal corresponding to light passing through the color filter array, the image signal including a red light signal corresponding to the light passing through the red-pass filter, a green light signal corresponding to the light passing through the green-pass filter, a blue light signal corresponding to the light passing through the blue-pass filter, and an infrared-ray signal corresponding to the infrared-rays passing through the at least one filter; and an image signal processor for correcting and processing at least one of the red light signal, the green light signal and the blue light signal in response to the infrared-ray signal.
