Do you believe that there's a color blind individual? How could you describe the right color to a color blind person? Lets say, he/she sees it as blue though its green, how can u explain that to him/her?

I got told off by a Website designer once for using red text in a part of the webpage I made, his reasoning was colour blind people can't see red, and when I told a friend they came up with all these top tline webpages and they all had a lot of red in them... so not sure if it is true or not.

you mean red is invisible to colour blind person. i thought color blind person can see color but hard to distinguish.

i met a man only once who was colour blind , he only found out when he went for his drivers licence . he could nt tell the light changes . that was a long time ago and he said he was not allowed to drive because of his affliction.

my mom says my uncle is color blind but he never tells people but he drives okay he just follows the brightest light when driving . I wouldn't even be able to describe a color to a person who was born color blind I had a blind cousin and he was always wanting to know about this and that and asking us to describe things and colors but it was hard because he was blinded at 2-1/2. So no I couldn't describe the colors to them.

my bf is colorblind, he cannot really distinguish the color if they are too little or too far, but if the color is big, he is able to identify them.
