Color blindness, or color vision deficiency, is a condition where individuals perceive colors differently than the majority of people. This impairment often makes it challenging to distinguish between certain colors. Color blindness typically has a genetic basis and tends to run in families. While there is no cure for this condition, specialized glasses and contact lenses are available to aid individuals in distinguishing between colors more effectively. Despite experiencing color vision deficiency, most people can carry out their daily activities without significant difficulty.

How to test yourself

A simple color blind test

It’s easy to test whether you’re color blind. You don’t even need to go to a doctor. A set of images called the Ishihara color plates is one of the most common and reliable color blind tests.

Simply look at the images, which have numbers embedded in dots of color. The numbers are a different color than the background. If you can’t see the numbers, you’re probably colorblind. School kids often take the Ishihara test as a classroom activity. Color blindness testing is that easy. And it can be fun.
