We investigate the effect of plasma screening on the tune-out wavelengths for helium atom using correlated exponential wave function within the framework of Debye shielding approach. The pseudostate summation technique has been used to calculate the dynamic dipole polarizability for the states (2 {sup 1}S, 3 {sup 1}S, 2 {sup 3}S, 3 {sup 3}S) of helium embedded in plasma environments. In a free-atomic system, our calculated results are in agreement with available theoretical and experimental predictions. The tune-out wavelengths show interesting behavior as functions of screening parameter.
