    Reminds me of that one post where op discovered he was colourblind when he sorted characters by colour and it being obviously wrong.

      I had a moment where I believed I was colorblind because I was toying around with iOS accessibility settings and one of the colour filters looked exactly the same enabled as disabled when I tested it. Good times.

      Not colorblind.

    It doesn’t say anything for me, it’s an odd shape of different coloured orbs and yes i am confirmed colour blind. Red green, i keep forgetting what it’s called.

    Is it bad that I glanced at it and also thought it was 71, and had to actually consciously pay attention to the colours to see the 4?

      No I think that’s by design. I also thought it was 71 at first it just takes a bit more time

    Can I just tell you how much I hate those Ishihara tests? I don’t see shit in that OP one (which was exactly what I expected).

    Once upon a time, Panasonic did a print ad for one of their new color printers that was a dot test that read “Panasonic”, with nothing else on the page. Not super-effective advertising - although I suppose color-blind folks weren’t necessarily the target demographic…

        Yes, they do.

        I kinda hate them because non-colorblind people generally say one of a few things when conversations about them come up: “OMG do you really not see any numbers on there? It’s so OBVIOUS”, “Wow… so what color is this [insert random obvious thing]?”, or “So you’re colorblind? How do you deal with traffic lights? LOL”.
