Approximately one in 12 men and one in 200 women in the world are colorblind, according to the Colour Blind Awareness organization.

Though colorblind people are usually able to see things as clearly as everyone else, they’re unable to fully see red, green or blue light, according to the Colour Blind Awareness website.

Business Insider put together a video (above) using Colblindor's online color blindness simulator to show you how people who are colorblind see the world.
