A member asked:
Why do people who are colorblind still see color?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not complete: Color blind people have problems discriminating certain colors but have color sensation for most others. So they can see a lot of colors but not the full palette of the color normal. We call them color deficient - color blind is an older term not used by ophthalmologists.
