color blind vision is where you can't see color, or where you cannot see certain color e.g. some people can't see red or green, they see grey, or even a different color!

normal vision is usually where you can see all colors in a spectrum of light

With their eyes, same as anybody else.

Colorblindness is a defect in one or more of the visual pigments. Most "colorblind" people can see colors, they just don't see the same ones that trichromats (people with normal vision) see, and it's hard for them to distinguish between certain hues (one type of colorblindness results in a difficulty telling green from red, another type makes blue and yellow appear similar).

A very few people can't see colors at all and can only detect brightness levels. What they see is essentially like a black and white movie.

Color blindness is when you don't know what color something is and night blindness is when you can't see well at night from the dark.
