About Red-Green Color Blindness
Red-green deficiency is the most common type of color vision limitation. It affects how well red and green are distinguished. This page uses Ishihara-style plates as a simple screen—not a clinical exam.
Color Blind Test
Take this quick red-green color vision screening to check for common color blindness.
A person with normal vision sees the leaf on the right, while a person with red-green color blindness tends to see the leaf on the left.
When red and green elements appear together (as on the right), people with red-green deficiency may not separate them clearly (as on the left)—a reminder to avoid relying on red–green alone in design.
