Does color exist?

If people are going to insist time exists, we might as well consider our own perception of light bouncing off stuff as a thing that exists. It's measurable and all that.

Now, you need eyes to see it. Well, I need special equipment to see UV light. Does it exist? Yes. I need special equipment like an electron microscope to see a virus. Does it exist? Yes.

So even assuming there were no animals in the entire universe with eyes to see it, one could presume that color exists.
