Do colors look the same to every person?

Question

Do colors look the same to every person?

Answer 1

no , not exactly, as children we are shown what another person perceives, i.eou could seriously tripp a person up if as a child you told them red was blue, they would dream/think of red being blue etc.

But physically each eye is different/ perceives it in a slightly different manner

Answer 2

how could we ever kow good question !

Answer 3

Yes, because it's the frequency of the photons emitted from the colored object.

Answer 4

Yes, unless they have daltonism. (Colorblindness of the red-green type (also known as deuteranopia or deuteranomaly)

Answer 5

Close but probably not exact.  Some people see varying degrees of color while others are color blind.

Answer 6

i personally dont think so

Answer 7

Depends if they are on the same drugs ;)

Answer 8

No they don't each person sees colors differently. Take the color Fuchsia for instance to most guys it is simply pink. I personally can't tell the difference from one shade of pink to another. I can distinguish the brightness but in the end it is still just pink to me.

Answer 9

Sight, as well as any of our other senses, can vary greatly among individuals.

Perception of color is achieved through color receptors containing pigments with different spectral sensitivities. There are three types of color receptors (known as cone cells).

In the human eye, the cones are maximally receptive to short, medium, and long wavelengths of light. This perception of color (color vision) is the ability to distinguish objects based on the amount of light they reflect or emit.

The peak response of human color receptors varies, even among individuals with "normal" color vision.

Any condition that interferes with the amount of light that can be seen (such as cataracts), will further change the wavelengths that can be detected, causing a decrease in clarity and color perception.

Answer 10

No because even though the frequency of the photons emitted from the colored object is the same for everyone, not everyones eyes can pick up the same amount of color in certain circumstances. When they do the color blind test in the Navy they have like three different ones this is the reason, because everyones vision is just a little different. And like said above there are people who can not see color at all and just like shades of gray.
