I know my dad has some kind of colourblindness. Based on what he told me it seems to be somewhere in the red blind part. My husband is similar.

The green-weak/Deuteranomaly looks most like what I have (although the gif exaggerates it a lot). I think in bright light I can distinguish colours about as well as a normal person, but as the light level decreases there’s just not as much contrast between greens and reds.
However, I’m pretty sure (it’s been a long time since I was tested), I’m actually red-weak, but that gif massively exaggerates it so it’s hard to tell.
Basically, apart from an Ishihara test, I’ve never noticed any difference in vision.

The doorframe changing from teal to grey-green is what stood out the most to me. Secondary effect was the general rosy appearance of everything else.

On the bright side, you save a lot of money on flowers.
