  1. dichromasy

    Dichromasy is a type of color vision deficiency in which an individual is unable to perceive one of the three basic colors - red, green, or blue. It is characterized by the individual's reliance on only two types of photoreceptor cells in the retinas instead of the usual three, which results in a limited range of perceived color. Dichromasy includes three main types: protanopia (inability to perceive red), deuteranopia (inability to perceive green), and tritanopia (inability to perceive blue).
