What i know as Red might look totally different from what you see as Red. But it's always been called "red"... so how would we know? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a science fact. So for example, around 670 nanometers wavelength is Red and around 470 nm is blue etc. So what everyone knows as red is the same part of the visible light spectrum. The second part, as to how you process that light and the effect that has one your visual cortex, compared to the next person's - I guess science again. Eyeses and brainses are just like car parts really. or in summary Yes we all see them the same because Frequency and meat robots. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyeses and brainses are just like car parts really. or in summary Yes we all see them the same because Frequency and meat robots. My 7 year old daughter asked me the other day why sun sets are orange. I gave her a very detailed answer firstly about how we evolved eyes to perceive different wavelengths of light and how our brain processes that into what we experience as colour. I went on to explain how when the sun gets lower to the horizon these wavelengths are absorbed differently by particles in the atmosphere which changes the colour of the sun. I felt like I had just delivered some really A grade parenting. "Isn't that amazing" I finished with. After a short pause she said "What were we talking about again?"...... 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 You are bang on about the light spectrum. Obviously colour blind people see different colours even though we are looking at the same thing so some variation does happen in the meat robots. I am no biologist but I believe it's down to the red/green/blue receptors or cones (My mate sees green as orange/red as brown in certain lights). I suppose the question really is, do we all process the information we receive in the same way ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted April 2, 2019 Author VT Supporter Share Posted April 2, 2019 I'm currently halfway through having my catracts fixed - one eye done, one to go. My dodgy left eye is blurry over distances, but can read small print without reading glasses. And it sees some colours (especially green) very highly saturated. My new right eye lens is calibrated for distance, sees greens as much paler than the left eye, but has more saturated blues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But colour-blindness can mean someone doesn't see what I see. Although that's not the same as what I think Stevo was wondering which is if I looked through someone else's eyes could I potentially see what I would regard as the colour blue where my own eyes would see red. For those interested, this video explains the whys of colour-blindness and colour very well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
