I have a camera that can read in text from an image like

12:05 PM

And based on this image, it will convert it to the corresponding text so that the computer can further processes this time.

The problem is that the "0" has a line through it. As a result, sometimes the algorithm will interpret the "0" with a line though it as either an "8" or an "e".

Should I handle this as special cases in the OCR processing system itself or should I attempt to maybe try to further train the images at the Machine Learning code level?
