 | | Other forms of color blindness are much much rarer, like blue-yellow, and the rarest being complete color blindess (achromatopsia, or maskun), where one can see only shades of grey. |
 | | Deuteranopia: lacking the green receptor cones in the retina; those affected are unable to distinguish between red and green. |
