Makes one see red as green perhaps (7)

I believe the answer is:

enrages

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'makes one see red' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'as green perhaps' is the wordplay.
'perhaps' indicates an anagram.
'as'+'green'='asgreen'
'asgreen' anagrammed gives 'ENRAGES'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enrages that I've seen before include "Angers" , "Makes violently angry" , "Makes red" , "Makes furious" , "Incenses" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
