Deuteranopia

Deuteranopia is a color vision defect characterized by mixing red, green and yellow colors into one. This defect can be caused by genetic factors and can also occur with certain eye diseases.

Deuteranopia affects people who have an abnormality in the functioning of the visual cones in the retina. These cones are responsible for the perception of colors and work differently depending on the wavelength of light. In deuteranopia, these cones do not work properly, causing the colors red, yellow, and green to appear mixed.

People with deuteranopia may have difficulty distinguishing colors in bright light and may experience discomfort when viewing bright colors. They may also misperceive color cues, such as when dealing with traffic lights.

To diagnose deuteranopia, special equipment is used to determine which colors a person sees better and which colors worse. This vision defect can be treated with vision correction or special glasses.

Overall, deuteranopia is a serious color vision disorder and can cause serious problems in daily life. However, thanks to modern technologies, people with this defect can live a full life and work with color images.



Deuteranopia is a color vision defect characterized by mixing red, green and yellow colors into one. This defect occurs in approximately 1-2% of the population. Deuteranopes cannot distinguish the color red, and green and yellow look the same to them. This leads to them confusing red and green, which can be dangerous on the road or when working with machinery.

Deuteranopes may also have difficulty reading, as the colors red and green may blur together, making it difficult to distinguish between letters.

In comparison, protanopes only see blue and violet, while tritanopes only see purple and cyan. Color blindness, which affects approximately 1% of people, is characterized by a lack of color vision at all.

Although deuteranopia is a rare disorder, it can have serious consequences, especially in environments where color discrimination is required. Therefore, it is important to diagnose this defect in a timely manner and take measures to correct it.



Deuteranopia or deuteranomacy is a color vision defect that is extremely rare and affects only three percent of the world's population. With this color, the perception of not only primary colors, but also the entire surrounding world, including shades and halftones, suffers. It leads to a high degree of color blindness, when a person ceases to perceive green, yellow, red and its shades.

Deuteranopia affects both men and women, but there is an uneven distribution of the anomaly. In some countries, the number of carriers of deuteranomial defect is 4%, and in others it reaches 10%. On the territory of Russia there is an intermediate version of the norm among carriers of this disease - 6%.

Color blindness in vision caused by deuteranopia also varies in nature: from transmission to
