How do things look to colorblind people

There's a common misconception among people that everything looks black and white to colorblind people .. well it's not true (only in total color blindness you see black and white). There are many different types of degress when it comes to color deficiency .. following images show you how colors change to a color blind person ..

Normal

Protan (type of deficiency)

Deutan

Tritan

If you want to find out if color deficiency exists in you, please take the following test ..
hope you see the numbers :)

That's fascinating! I knew there were varying degrees of color blindness but the pictures were so illustrative. And I'm also happy to report that I passed the test.

Interesting. So I'm guess the Tritans are red-green colourblind and the others are blue-yellow. If so then Tritans are the most common form, missing the cones to percieve those colours. Bees can see even more colours than we can since their eyes are designed to see a wider area along the colour spectrum. I've wondered and tried to imagine what it would be like to see gamma rays or infra red, like snakes do.

Is there something similar when it comes to hearing? Tone-deafness apparently has more to do with vocal cords.
Nice post :-)

Hi Nabeel,
Excellent post! :)
I studied this in elementary school; it's amazing how many people ask artists about colours and colour blindness. Terrific way to present this info to us here in blogland.

I have ALWAYS wondered what the word might look like to the colorblind.

I failed the test miserably. I have a question... since I'm colorblind, shouldn't the original "normal" picture look exactly the same to me as one of the "colorblind" pictures? They don't look the same to me at all.
