I have terrible vision but I am not color blind.

My neighbor dated this artist once who was completely color blind. Most of the stuff he did was modern art but once he painted this landscape and he made the grass purple.

I'm not.

Someone I know with this problem told me that dogs can't see colors either.

nope, they can't. nor cats. it gives them better night vision

Dogs see in various shades of blue, violet, gray, and some scientists think they can also see yellow, as well. It is true, though, that they can't see colors like green, yellow or red.

are u a dog?

Just social humor.

I have a question... how do colorblind people know that white is yellow, green is red and whatnot... maybe we all see the world differently.

You grow up learning Blue is blue, yellow is yellow, but if you saw the color orange b/c u were colorblind and it looked yellow, you would call our "yellow" orange... etc... so you wouldnt know your colorblind would you....?

Maybe in my brain, red looks like what green should look like... and green looks yellow.. and yellow looks red...
