You don’t see color with your eyes. Color is an interpretation your brain makes based on structures in your eye being differently stimulated by variations in wavelength. So different eye structures get stimulated differently then get interpreted by different brain structures resulting in many different versions of color seeing. Some may not see color as part of their visual field but react reflexively to its presence like insects or shrimp. Some can have no color receptors in their retina but instead focus their vision on narrow bands of the spectrum selecting different colors to pay attention to at different times, like squid. Some may have many more primary colors resulting in a complex colour space we can’t even really imagine with our three primary color brains. There is really no way to imagine the complexity they see without sharing their biology. We can test and model it but never know the experience.
