Incandesent lamps have full spectrum light. Incandescents have a very restricted range that work well for people with normal colour perception. If you're missing one of the colour receptors, that will definitely make the colour different for you compared to incandescents of the same colour temperature.
There are "full spectrum" CFLs out there, that might work better for you. They use a larger range of phosphors than the ordinary CFLs.
