Anomalous Trichromats Definition

Anomalous Trichromats

Anomalous Trichromats – is a congenital color vision deficiency where, as in normal color vision, there are three classes of cone, but the spectral sensitivity of the anomalous cone photopigment is different from the norm.

A specific type of color blindness is based on reduced sensitivity to green or red. It affects medium-wavelength-sensitive cones, which is more common than Protonemalcus trichromacy, which affects long-wavelength-sensitive cones.

It is an alteration in the spectral sensitivity of one of the three cone cell receptors in the retina that make up the cоlor spectrum.

Anomalous Trichromats may make some academic activities more difficult. However, issues are generally minor, and the colorblind automatically develops adaptations and coping mechanisms.
