There practically no people blind to "all colors". Most colorblind
have reduced red reception, a few -- reduced green reception, much
fewer -- complete loss of red, even fewer -- complete loss of
green. Other two types and combinations (e.g no red and no green =>
world is grey) are extreme rarity.

Reduced reception can not be corrected by the spectral filter as it is
not a problem with receptors, but in the brain's "colormap processing
unit"(:
