A Quick Red-Green Colorblindness Test

The article consists of a video that gives you some concept what it is like to be crimson-green colorblind, and it has a hyperlink to an online take a look at for red-inexperienced colorblindness. It's known as the Ishihara 38 Plates CVD Test and it makes use of 38 pics like this:

You've seen those before, have not you?

Anyway, even as the online test isn't ideal -- it explains why on the test web page -- it is able to nevertheless give you an concept approximately whether or not you're affected or now not. I knew I had a few colorblindness -- no longer a lot, but it indicates up if there's not sufficient comparison among the 2 hues (that is, one being darker or lighter than the opposite) -- and the check picked it up. You may want to strive it in case you're curious.
