About Tetrachromacy Tetrachromacy is a condition that allows some people to see colors that are not visible to most of the population. It is a condition that results when an additional type of color receptor cell is present in the eye. With normal color vision [https://www.allaboutvision.com/eye-care/eye-anatomy/color-vision/], humans can see approximately one million different colors. Tetrachromats can perceive an estimated 100 million color variations Tetrachromacy amplifies the eye’s ability to distinguish between shades of colors. This creates a visual result that some might call ‘super vision’. Tetrachromacy is a rare genetic phenomenon that is believed to only affect females, with an estimated 12% of women worldwide who may be Tetrachromatic.
