About Color Vision Deficiency

Color blindness affects approximately 8% of men and 0.5% of women worldwide. The most common types are red-green color blindness (protanopia/deuteranopia).

When designing, ensure important information is not conveyed by color alone. Use patterns, labels, or icons as additional visual cues.

This simulator uses color transformation matrices to approximate how colors appear to people with different types of color vision deficiency.
