Windows 10: Screen colors changed without my doing anything

Hello! I had a complimentary financial consultation this morning with a financial planner who shared their screen and mine. They used charts with a green tone to them. At the end of the zoom call I didn't know what happened to my ASUS laptop - everything looked green and my eyes were going crazy trying to adjust to it! Worse yet, I went to play a card game online and except that a shape is associated with each of the four card suits, they all appeared dark. It appeared again except for knowing the shapes, diamond, heart, spade, club as though all four suits in the hand I was playing were BLACK! It was awful. I don't play that well to start with but now it's just impossible. Worse yet, I'm feeling panicked because my grad school classes begin again next week. I've tried looking up how to change it back on Google but the changes I thought I made didn't stay when I clicked off that site. At the top of this page here there are 4 squares next to the name Microsoft. Top left is either very dark olive green or black, upper right is a much lighter olive green, bottom right is a slightly different shade of green, and the bottom left square is kind of a light blue! I don't know where this color combo came from but it's awful!!! Could someone please help me with baby step directions - assuming this can be fixed. Does the person who shared her screen with me have to do anything? I'm so confused... Oh, and now light pink lines are appearing and the regular colors in the Microsoft window have come back so maybe just by tossing my question out to the Universe it fixed itself???
