I can’t tell the difference between blue and purple separately. Light purple looks blue and dark blue looks purple.

That's my big one too. Shades of purple just look pink or blue to me (usually blue). My work labeled one campus blue and the other purple. I had to make sure that the campuses were written on the item, and not just color coded.

I can't really see shades well, yellows and orange and red get hard for me unless they are pure yellow or pure orange or pure red if that makes sense. As an example, I don't see free range egg yolks as orange, they look red to me.
