Conventional infrared and visible image fusion(IVIF) methods often assume high-quality inputs, neglecting real-world degradations such as low-light and noise, which limits their practical applicability. To address this, we propose a Degradation-Decoupled Fusion(DDFusion) framework, which achieves degradation decoupling and jointly models degradation suppression and image fusion in a unified manner. Specifically, the Degradation-Decoupled Optimization Network(DDON) performs degradation-specific decomposition to decouple inter-degradation and degradation-information components, followed by component-specific extraction paths for effective suppression of degradation and enhancement of informative features. The Interactive Local-Global Fusion Network (ILGFN) aggregates complementary features across multi-scale pathways and alleviates performance degradation caused by the decoupling between degradation optimization and image fusion. Extensive experiments demonstrate that DDFusion achieves superior fusion performance under both clean and degraded conditions. Our code is available at https://github.com/Lmmh058/DDFusion.
