A member asked:

Does night blindness make you see green as red or is it the other way around?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Night blindness has several forms with red/green the most common. Typically, these persons learn to determine colors, as being various shades of grey. So they interpret colors normally, except in the tests designed to detect color disorder (not really blindness) D. Stephen Hollis, MD Auburn, Alabama Lasik surgeon
