“…The protan population has abnormal L-cone cells, which are sensitive to red light, whereas the deutan population has abnormal M-cone cells, which perceive green; both types account for approximately 95% of the people with a CVD. The remaining 5%, a small percentage, belong to the tritan group, characterized by an absence of the S-cone cells sensitive to blue light [1].…”

“…As a side note it should be mentioned that in addition to red-green color perception deficiencies (deuteranoptic and protanoptic color perception) there exists also a very rare blue-yellow color perception deficiency (Tritanomaly) affecting some 0.001-0.2% of people [13,14]. Taking into account all different anomalies for the display of data would limit the display to black and white images, however it is obvious that completely omitting colors does not allow any multi-dimensional display of information which is a too severe limitation.…”
