In
its most severe forms, color
|
|
blindness
is caused by the absence of
|
one
of the cone visual pigments.
|
|
Shown
here, the spectral sensitivities
|
|
of
the cone pigments in color normal
|
|
trichromats
are compared with those
|
|
of
a color blind person. Also compare
|
|
the
spectrum as it appears to a color
|
|
normal
person with the illustration of
|
|
how
it might look to a red-green color
|
|
blind person.
