A form of color blindness where someone cannot see the color blue.
From Greek 'a-' (not) + 'cyan' (blue) + 'opsia' (vision condition). The term combines the prefix for negation with the color cyan and the medical suffix for seeing, first used in 19th-century medical terminology to classify color vision deficiencies.
This is so specific that it's rare—most color blindness affects red-green perception, but acyanopsia targets the blue spectrum, making it one of the least common color vision problems. Historically, scientists had to invent these precise terms before they could even study these conditions properly!
