Color blindness
See an image as a color-blind person does.
What it does
Your image as a color-blind person sees it, next to the original: to check a poster, a chart, a grade or an interface.
- About 8 % of men and 0.5 % of women see colors differently, mostly reds and greens. The four types here are the full forms; milder forms (“anomalies”) are more common and look in between.
- Simulation: the matrices of Machado, Oliveira and Fernandes (2009), applied in linear RGB. A good guide, not an exact view of every person.
- Good habits: don’t carry information by color alone (add shapes, labels, patterns), and check light and dark contrast (see the Contrast tool).
- Your image stays on your device, for this visit only.
