What is another word for deuteranopia?
Pronunciation: [djˌuːtəɹɐnˈə͡ʊpi͡ə] (IPA) 
Deuteranopia is a type of color blindness where the person is unable to differentiate between greens and reds. There are several synonyms used for deuteranopia, including green-blindness, red-green color blindness, deuteranomaly, and protanopia. These terms are used interchangeably but have different implications. Green-blindness refers to a complete absence of green-sensing cells in the retina, while protanopia is the inability to differentiate between green and red depending on their wavelength. Similarly, deuteranomaly refers to a partial loss of green-sensing cells and reduces the ability to distinguish greens and reds, but not as severely as deuteranopia. Overall these synonyms are used to describe the same condition of color blindness, but different terms more precisely describe the nature and severity of the condition.
