Deuteranopia consists of an impairment in perceiving medium wavelengths, such as greens.

- One of the two varieties of red-green color blindness (also known as green-dichromacy). Deuteranopia results from the loss of function of the M-cones. Deuteranopes, in contrast to protanopes (see protanopia), display essentially normal visual sensitivity throughout the spectrum.
