Colour Blindness Simulator: frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded?

No. Decoding, simulation and comparison happen in your browser.

Which vision types are available?

Protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia, their anomaly forms, and achromatopsia.

Is this an exact representation of individual vision?

No. This is a mathematical approximation. Individual perception varies.

How are colour warnings calculated?

Dominant colour pairs are compared in OKLab before and after simulation. Use labels and patterns as well as colour in important charts.
