        It’s a 74. But parts of the 4 are a different shade so you see 71 if your color vision is different.

          You guys have to be memeing. I can sort of see the 4, although it’s pretty subtle. But there’s no way that’s a 7. It clearly curves at the top, like a 2.

          Edit: Ok, nevermind. I just loaded up the image in an image editor and shifted the hue a bit. I can see the 74 then. I knew from previous color vision tests that I had somewhat less than average color vision, but I didn’t think it would be this striking.

          Edit 2: Oh, and here’s the edited image, for others who might have trouble seeing it (I hope you won’t have trouble with this image, too):

      I just see a bunch of green and orange dots, with a small amount of tea colored dots. I don’t know what the alphanumeric scale is, I do all of my math with my fingers

    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.

    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”.

    I can confirm that I see both an orange car and a 21. I’m not colourblind in the "I can’t see any colour " way and I can drive a car and see traffic lights without any problem but I do percieve colors differently enough to get in arguments with friends and family about the colour of stuff. I think it’s called deuteranomaly

    Edit :the more I know!

      Colourblind isn’t the complete absense of colour, e.g. everything looks black and white. With deuteranomaly, you are the actual textbook definition of colourblindness… There are different levels of it, but all can still perceive colour - it’s just whether the difference in colour of the spectrum is detected correctly.

      Deuteranomaly (/ie) is the reduction in reactivity of the red-colour receptors. That means your perception of orange/red/brown is less than those with normal vision.

      For those with normal vision, this is a great chart. But, if you’re colourblind, it’ll be more confusing for you, sorry!

          If I were to guess, it might be because purple isn’t a wavelength of light, it’s like a glitch in how we perceive light with the two cones opposite to each other in the spectrum being stimulated at the same time without the middle one.

          For any practical purposes in every day life, purple is a color, it just doesn’t exist outside our perception.

        So everyone can see a form of blue, most being royal blue? That’s super interesting because there’s a saying in art, “If you can’t make it good, make it blue.”

      You are actually textbook definition of colour blind. What you have is deuteranomaly which is red green colour blindness.

        Even though I know the dress factually is blue and black, I think a white and gold version should be made, because it’s pretty.

        And it should also be photographed in such a way that it appears to be blue and black.

        Night owls tended to see the dress correctly.

        It has something to do with how good people are at looking at visual keys in the picture to determine the color.

        All colors are pervieved relatively. Vsauce on YouTube has a good video on this

    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.

      Yeah, definitely more of a trick, can see the 74 but it’s a little more faint than I’d like it to be
