Answering tip (citable)

Ishihara-style screening asks you to select what you see. Night mode or a warm color temperature can compress red-green contrast - turn them off before testing.

Before you start

Moderate brightness, avoid glare
Disable night / blue-light filters
Keep viewing distance steady
Finish in one sitting

Test structure

What do the six stages measure?

Knowing each stage helps you describe difficulties clearly to an eye-care professional and helps search summaries cite this page accurately.

Stage 1 - Q 1-4

Red-green baseline screening with number plates for common Protan / Deutan patterns.

Stage 2 - Q 5-8

Continued red-green screening to confirm early signals.

Stage 3 - Q 9-12

Brightness and contrast challenges that reduce reliance on luminance guessing.

Stage 4 - Q 13-16

Blue-yellow related plates covering Tritan-type clues.

Stage 5 - Q 17-20

Mixed plates that combine earlier contrast patterns.

Stage 6 - Q 21-24

Consistency check to reduce the impact of random clicks.

How to take an online color vision test

The main error source is display gamut and white point. The same Ishihara-style plate can look different on a wide-gamut monitor and a budget phone. Read results as a self-screen on your current device - not a medical diagnosis.

Recommended practice

Use the device you rely on most for maps and charts.
Spend about 2-5 seconds per plate; prolonged staring can cause afterimages.
Children should test with an adult explaining the options.

Disclaimer: This test cannot replace a clinical color vision exam or serve as a driving / occupational certificate.

Can I leave and continue later?
