Definitions

  1. dichromacy characterized by a lowered sensitivity to green light resulting in an inability to distinguish green and purplish-red

Word origin

From deutero- (“second (color)”) + an- (“without”) + -opia (“vision”).

Used in a sentence

  • Deuteranomalous subjects show ordering behaviour similar to the behaviour of normal colour vision subjects, but less like their colleagues with deuteranopia.
  • A human with color blindness in the form of deuteranopia is missing the M cones and has only S and L cones present, resulting in a neutral point where the spectral absorption curves of the remaining pigments cross.
  • Dichromacy is a moderately severe color vision defect. It is hereditary and, in the case of protanopia or deuteranopia, sex-linked, affecting predominantly males.
