I had a female friend who was color blind, but it’s so rare in females the lady giving her the test thought she was lying.
Feralkyn
It happens a lot; I know a girl who had the same issue. It's not actually as rare as they think--it's a lot more complex (so she tells me)
than just x-linked and nothing else. Supposedly it can spontaneously mutate, among other things.

I do like me some scientific Greek.
Eg. tritanopia = absence of blue cones, deuteranomaly = defective/weak green cones (most common form, 6% of males). Prot- and deuter- 2/
types are grouped together as red-green colour blindness, trit- is called blue-yellow colour blindness. 3/3

Last image; 2nd and 3rd image nearly identical to me. 3rd has slightly brighter green and slightly smaller band of brown to the far right.
TheSwedishCryptid
Deuteranomaly and protanomaly looks different at green for me, and more purple at protanomaly. The deepest blue is also different
Dreamdayer
The band of brown is shorter on the 3rd one down because there's a small band of deep purple which is missing from the one above it.
dubi544
Wait the stuff on the right is brown? I thought it was more red somehow lol (Am actually color blind)
wintercoat
They're almost exactly the same but have slight differences, yes.
NothingButReactionGifs
Agreed.
DJNinja
It's supposed to be compared to the normal vision image. Yes the two are nearly identical but subtle.
causality
They're not even close to identical. The greens are wildly different shades and the purple region is twice as long on 3 as it is on 2.
AxisBond
That's a ]good point that I think most (including myself) are overlooking. If one/both look the same as the normal vision is when to worry
TheBurritoConfederacy
The difference is subtle. Slight color difference, and a couple different widths on the color bands.
cyrusjoneslivedforever
Yes me too. Does this mean things?
SoraHjort
You have to compare it to the normal vision. If you can't tell the difference between normal and it, then you have that type of color blind
However if you can tell there is a difference between it and the normal vision, then you don't have that kind of color blindness, or any.
TheJomsborgViking
It means you have normal vision
DarknessIlluminated
The island of Pingelap has a population of people that is almost totally colorblind (the bottom one in image 1).
A typhoon in the 1700's wiped out most of the population and one of the few survivors had the gene for achromotopsia (greyscale vision).
Now, many generations later, much of the (isolated) population carries this gene as well and has this rare form of colorblindness.
Man15
Wait, deuteranomaly is slightly more pale than protanomaly. Is my ass colorblind.
FromTheShadow
I remember when I found out me, my dad and my bros are all colorblind. I found a book with the tests and none of us could see the last one.
SHININTURDZ
The last image... the second and third rows look the same right?
DTJames
Green section is different tone of green.
cyno01
And the greens are slightly a different shade, BUT i think that one mayve lost something to a whole lotta jpeg.
Gonnaderpya
Look at the purple to brown portion
WilliamKeith
They're very slightly different. I know I'm not color blind and it took me magnifying it before I could see a difference confidently.
Tovlyn
The green section is more intense on the third one, and the purple/browns are different.
Kiore
Ahahaha lost it at 'go be straight since your ass can't even see the rainbow'.
kitalda
The company with the glasses have an online test: https://enchroma.com/pages/test
FallingStar7669
This is the Ishikara colourblindness test, developed in 1972. Or at least their version of it.
Yes, I believe so. There are a few other tests available online, but this one is quick and I believe fairly accurate.
There is also a mobile game, Hue I believe it's called, that relies on your ability to distinguish hues.
This test is more about the accuracy of your colour vision: https://www.xrite.com/hue-test
That's interesting. I know for a fact that I'm colorblind (mild-moderate protan) but I scored perfectly on that test.
Well, then your hue perception is probably perfect in those hue areas, while lacking in another area.
I wonder if it's a case of accuracy vs precision... very precise colour vision, but not very accurate? hm. Interesting indeed.
jackiejoo24
Jokes aside, are the two under normal vision the same in the last image?
Yeah they're the same to me. "Normal vision" looks different than the two beneath, which are identical to one another (for me).
PhailRaptor
The colors are the same, but some of the points where the color changes are shifted a bit
AspAspAsp
Uh, nope. The blue end is different. If you're uncertain go into photoshop, overlap them, and set blending mode to Difference.
Carphunter
no. colors are slightly different. easy to spot that the the purple band between the blue and brown is broader in the 3rd img than the 2nd
@AspAspAsp had a good idea. This is the difference:
And this is the difference with the brightness turned up to see it more easily:
MacFluffy
Nope, not even close
Nope, not to me anyway. And I have great colour vision.
The two BENEATH "normal color vision?" They look the same to me.
Exactly. They are not very different, but they are different. Especially at the right end.
Ahh, I see the purple's like... slightly longer
Very slightly different. Subtle changes in the size of each section of color
crann
I teach industrial programming in collage and I had to break it to one of my students the other day that he is color blind. He was saying /1
his program was working that one of the indicators on the screen wasn't coming on. It was working just fine, he just couldn't see it. /2
He asked if he could be excused for the rest of the class. Bit of a shock to him. Time to redesign some of the labs I guess.
OH NO!!!!! collage!? WTF crann you jack ass!!!!! Get your shit together you're a fucking college prof you fuckwit! I think I need to resign.
No you need to redesign* you said it yourself ;)
Oh man, getting downvoted for calling out my own terrible typo. What a strange little place imgur is.

This make be curious on what those women with super color vision can see.
Well if it's a digital display, it should be the same. They should just have more sensitivity to red/orange spectra IRL.
ilhares
Varies somewhat. My grandmother was a tetrochromat, and she saw into the UV spectrum a bit. She could ID some people's laundry detergent /1

same problem as the colourblind -> there is no translating it to 'normal vison' because welll... no reference to what is normal...
My friend keeps telling me I have this ... but who knows, his colourrecognition may be impaired and I am the average one here...
IAmNotHere
So @MacFluffy...are you any form of colorblind?
cyberpunxie
AFAIK they see more different shades of every color but it's nothing spectacular, so basically they can differentiate between 1/2
for example "bright yellow" and "yellow slightly brighter than this bright yellow" when most other people see the same color there. 2/2
thangmd
Last Pic 2nd and 3rd are the same right?
crazyvoice
Can confirm....? I don't see a difference between them
TheBlackWindHowls
Protanomaly has more yellow-green than deuteranomaly.
Fantasticolo
But isn't the test that the if the normal one looks like the 'your color blind' one, you're color blind?
The green is a lot brighter on the third one I'm afraid.
ilovemypiratedog
Similar, but you're supposed to be comparing them to the 1st row.
Some of the hues are subtly different, and there are a couple of spots where the "width" of a given color on the bar is wider or shorter.
Nope. 2nd is a little more green; 3rd is a little more yellow.
RepostFromLastWeek
There is a difference but it isn't as pronounced as it is with the others, if you're suspicious of your color vision there are tests like :
bingotown
They’re close but not quite the same.
GeneralArtek
No they are VERY slightly different. VERY slightly, had to stare close at the screen.
11thsong
Sorry, no. There is more yellow in the 3rd one with slightly warmer tones.
Oh and also brighter.
ilovebees
It's very very subtle though, and might be harder to see depending on monitor settings.

haha my dad did the same. got his truck painted. I was like "umm dad what color did you say this was?" He was like "it's twilight blue" 1
had to break the news to him it was purple. a damn nice shade of purple. he figures as he got older he got worse at colors. as all his 2
clients are older too he figures it doesn't matter anyways because they will see similar as him. it is a good shade though 3
To be fair, purple is an awesome color. Also traditionally used for royalty, same with blue due to the rarity of the dyes in ye' olde times.

I don't know if it's really colorblindness, but I have a gray shirt I like and my family/friends insist it's blue. I have blue ones too.
Gizmodian
Maybe more of a blue/black white/gold dress issue? There are things that folks will decide are a certain color and I'm like no? I see fine.
I know my grandpa once commented to his daughters how odd it was they liked gray dresses so much. They had a bunch of pink dresses....
Color blindness runs in one side of family for us. Grandpa had red/green issues, and cousin is entirely grayscale. I could pass the gene on.

You can generally tell a banana's ripeness by how hard it is- the more hard, the less ripe. I know this because I prefer green ones

Aaaand not how colorblindness works.
Exactly how his type works, he can't decipher between certain reds/pinks/oranges or between some blues/purples but he can see colour.
Henche the colorblindness tests with the dots. Individual colors don't magically change to another.
Ok I'll try one last time as simple as I can make it, see the first image, see tritanopia, the orange & bright pink just look red, that.
Yep, I have protanopia and deut. The thing is, you can still see the colors normally when they arent blended together.
Still not how colorblindness works. You lack color cones in your eyes, so some colors blend together. Individual colors don't change.
zephyruk
Here you go buddy, just took the test on the encroma website, I am protan colourblind - "red cones do not detect enough red and are too 1/?
sensitive to greens, yellows, and oranges. As a result, greens, yellows, oranges, reds, and browns may appear similar, especially 2/?
That's exactly what I said? He can't decipher between them they don't switch. I'm pretty sure his several doctors & optometrists are right.
Aka. an orange shirt wouldn't look pink. You see individual colors. Colors get fucky when they are blended together.
You lack color cones, so some colors blend together. Like red / green colorblindness. You see red and green 100%, but if close by, they 1/

had to break the news to him it was purple. a damn nice shade of purple. he figures as he got older he got worse at colors. as all his 2
peachesforme
clients are older too he figures it doesn't matter anyways because they will see similar as him. it is a good shade though 3

To be fair, purple is an awesome color. Also traditionally used for royalty, same with blue due to the rarity of the dyes in ye' olde times.

Well that's just an honest mistake.

I mistake purple for blue all the time. Also green and red are reeeaally alike.

My brother was 20, I asked why he got 5 pink tops, said he needed orange tops for work, Uh-oh, had to send his friend to the work sight test

Neon pink is still a high visibility color, so it works. 4 of those color graphs at the bottom are the same to me. :(

I don't know if it's really colorblindness, but I have a gray shirt I like and my family/friends insist it's blue. I have blue ones too.
Gizmodian
Maybe more of a blue/black white/gold dress issue? There are things that folks will decide are a certain color and I'm like no? I see fine.

I know my grandpa once commented to his daughters how odd it was they liked gray dresses so much. They had a bunch of pink dresses....

Color blindness runs in one side of family for us. Grandpa had red/green issues, and cousin is entirely grayscale. I could pass the gene on.

My little brother was 2, i was 19. He knew all his colors and the alphabet. I asked him what color Kermit was, he said "red".

Had a softball buddy show up to a game in very bright purple pants and when we gave him shit he thought they were blue.

It's all been his elaborate ruse.

I'm 31. I've always known I'm color blind but only recently found out that bananas come in different colors. 1/2
JuicyShaqMeat
Always thought it was just luck of the draw if you got a ripe one. Now I always ask someone in the supermarket to pick some for me 2/2
TheVegetable
You can generally tell a banana's ripeness by how hard it is- the more hard, the less ripe. I know this because I prefer green ones

Aaaand not how colorblindness works.
LachrymatorAesthetic
Exactly how his type works, he can't decipher between certain reds/pinks/oranges or between some blues/purples but he can see colour.
kakkapyllypillu
Henche the colorblindness tests with the dots. Individual colors don't magically change to another.
LachrymatorAesthetic
Ok I'll try one last time as simple as I can make it, see the first image, see tritanopia, the orange & bright pink just look red, that.
kakkapyllypillu
Yep, I have protanopia and deut. The thing is, you can still see the colors normally when they arent blended together.
kakkapyllypillu
Still not how colorblindness works. You lack color cones in your eyes, so some colors blend together. Individual colors don't change.
zephyruk
Here you go buddy, just took the test on the encroma website, I am protan colourblind - "red cones do not detect enough red and are too 1/?
zephyruk
sensitive to greens, yellows, and oranges. As a result, greens, yellows, oranges, reds, and browns may appear similar, especially 2/?
LachrymatorAesthetic
That's exactly what I said? He can't decipher between them they don't switch. I'm pretty sure his several doctors & optometrists are right.
kakkapyllypillu
Aka. an orange shirt wouldn't look pink. You see individual colors. Colors get fucky when they are blended together.
kakkapyllypillu
You lack color cones, so some colors blend together. Like red / green colorblindness. You see red and green 100%, but if close by, they 1/
