Stimulation in an annulus outside of that does not lead to trichromatic color perception but supports color perception similar to that of color blind individuals.Light that hits the far periphery does not result in color perception.</image:caption></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://thebrainissocool.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/enchromastrategy-04.png</image:loc><image:title>EnChromaStrategy-04</image:title><image:caption>The strategy used by the EnChroma engineers is to remove a chunk of wavelengths that could not possibly be distinguished by deuteranomalous M and normal L cones.</image:caption></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://thebrainissocool.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/deuterforblog-01.png</image:loc><image:title>DeuterForBlog-01</image:title><image:caption>In deuteranomaly, the absorption spectra of M cones is shifted to greater wavelengths and is very close to that of the L cones.</image:caption></image:image><image:image><image:loc>https://thebrainissocool.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/enchromasunglasses.jpg</image:loc><image:title>EnchromaSunglasses</image:title><image:caption>This image is provided by EnChroma and reportedly demonstrates the effect of the EnChroma sunglasses on a color blind person's perception.
