Deuteranomaly and protanomaly looks different at green for me, and more purple at protanomaly. The deepest blue is also different

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

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.

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.

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.
