Previous relative incidence unsourced

[edit]
Rates of color blindness[clarification needed][citation needed]
Males Females
Dichromacy 2.4% 0.03%
Protanopia (red deficient: L cone absent) 1.3% 0.02%
Deuteranopia (green deficient: M cone absent) 1.2% 0.01%
Anomalous trichromacy 6.3% 0.37%
Protanomaly (red deficient: L cone defect) 1.3% 0.02%
Deuteranomaly (green deficient: M cone defect) 5.0% 0.35%

This table has been on the color blindness page for a long time without source. I had tried before and spent another hour looking for a source that would align with no luck. AFAIK, the table in its entirety is first published here (uncited), though claims in literature for individual types that do match are even older (but also uncited). I'm removing it with citeable data that does not mention females, but I will leave it here for posterity if someone else wants to give it a go. Curran919 (talk) 13:12, 2 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
