… Agnetha explains her condition.........
Agnetha: I’m colorblind.
Bertha: How did you find out?
Agnetha: They test you when you retake your driving licence. It showed up.
Bertha: Which colors?
Agnetha: Red and green. They look the same to me.
Bertha: But you’ve been driving for years. Do you see red, see green, as different?
Agnetha: To me I do. Not to them. They took my licence away. But I managed.
Bertha: You never had an accident.
Agnetha: When the traffic stops I stop. When the traffic goes, I go. I flow.

Voice-over
Agnetha copes. The red light is (usually) at the top of the signal cluster.
The test of identifying a number in a matrix of colored dots identified her red/green problem. People with normal vision see "8". Red/green colorblind people see "3". But how often do we run across such a picture in daily life?

It's a Beautiful two twins or two circles color in this multiple pattern, two women are talking about this? It's only show in your blog, Awesome!
It's rare for a female to have color blindness. There are three basic variants of color blindness. Red/green color blindness is found in 8 percent of Caucasian males and 0.5 percent of Caucasian females. Agnetha is Caucasian I presume?
Agnetha is Danish. So she is one out of every 200 Caucasian females that have color blindness. But it isn't an either/or condition. Some people perceive hues more intensely than others. Color blind people have reduced perception of hues.
