Colors are a challenge for many people, as they simply see it differently.

I had cataract surgery a month ago. My new lens is, I have to assume clear. My 71 year old right eye is still sharper than the new lens, but it is 6 or 7 CC or points more yellow. If I wink the colors of the world change. My brain is doing fine blending the colors.

For most of my career, I worked in a professional photo lab. Color was very critical, and often subjective. I had made a print from one negative and put it aside. We would get a new employee that wanted to make prints for our clients. I would hand them that negative and have them make me their perfect print. I did not put a time limit or restrict how many times they could adjust the colors.

They would proudly bring what they though was a perfect print, and I would then pull out my reference print. Regularly I saw them deflated as they recognized my print was much better in density and color. Some people just could not do it, and we let them go after a week. All were hired as probationary employees. Some people just took to it and understood right away.

We had some clients want some product shot to have the product match a Pantone color. That was often a real challenge.
