Source: MSN News. Survey submitted by MSRCMS. Some people think color blind (or color vision) means seeing only in greyscale, but in fact, most of these folks are red-green or blue-yellow color blind, meaning it's hard to distinguish between these hues. If someone has ever commented that your clothes don't match or laughed when you identified a color they didn't see, you might be color blind (or are they could be color blind). Are you color blind?

In true color blindness facts, people are "color blind" only if they see just black and gray. This is actually very rare. The more common condition is "color vision deficiency," where greens and reds can look confusing.
