PHOTOGRAPHS that show the world through the eyes of someone with colour blindness have been revealed.

Three million people living in the UK are colour blind - the vast majority of those are men.

On the right is how someone would see the steps in Rio De Janeiro with Deuteranopia

and charity Colour Blindness Awareness UK to reveal what life is like for someone with the deficiency.

Tritanopia is a rare form and is the inability to process blue light.

People with this version confuse light blues with greys, dark purples with black, mid-greens with blues and oranges with reds.

Protanopia is the inability to see red light - mixing red with green and green with blue.

And lastly, deuteranopia is when people are unable to process green light.

The right image here is how someone with Deuteranopia would see the famous French landmark
