      Quite interesting, for me:

      Does show instead of the red, a bright pink with violet sprinkles, though.

      The other two, do fit though. (To use: Look for 20-60 seconds onto the X of the left column, then switch to the middle column X)

      Also a person which got more than three rods: https://johndasfundas.blogspot.com/2015/05/seeing-100-million-colors-100-times.html

      Sadly they don't show the wave length in which it works.

      Would people with synesthesia have a chance at "seeing" waves outside average range? I know that some or all of them speak of "hearing color" or "seeing sound."

          Yeah evidently the lenses filter those wavelengths out for our own protection, and supposedly some of it is perceptible to a degree for people who had the lenses removed. I remember reading somewhere that supposedly navies would use them as spotters, but I don't know how true that is, and it's a little difficult to search. People should also look up tetrachromia. Tetrachromats are people who [seem to] have an extra fourth type of cone that supposedly enriches the distinction between certain hues
