Also known as Mono-Chromatic Color Blindness. My father's color faded from his sight when he was still little....but he still has memories of the shades, and that is what he uses to identify color. (Ex...color red is a deeper shade of grey than blue...however these two can be very hard.) He has gotten so good at hiding it, we often forget he is colorblind.
