Yes, I've had the same experience. My eyes tend to gloss over large
chunks of black & white code. The actual colors don't seem to matter;
what's important is that different things show up in different colors,
and like things in like colors. (Different typefaces also work --
anything to visually distinguish sections of code.) It's a subtle but
important clue to my brain that helps me deal with complexity.
