General scope

How BlindnessTest.com tools and content should be interpreted across the site.

BlindnessTest.com provides browser-based color vision screening inspired by common clinical methods. The tools help you explore possible color vision differences, prepare for a conversation with an eye care professional, and learn how different screening approaches work.

Nothing on this site constitutes medical advice, a clinical diagnosis, or a treatment plan. These tools are not a substitute for a comprehensive eye examination by a licensed optometrist or ophthalmologist. By using the site, you agree to our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

The tools and content on this site are for informational and educational purposes only. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, judgment, or an in-person eye exam.
These limitations apply to every screening tool on the site, including those listed in the test-specific section below.

What screening can and cannot do

How to interpret online results and what they must not be used for.

  • Educational purpose: Screening tools on BlindnessTest.com are intended for education, awareness, and general interest. Results may help you notice possible color vision differences and decide whether to follow up with a professional.

  • Not a clinical diagnosis: The assessment does not diagnose any medical condition and does not replace evaluation by a licensed optometrist, ophthalmologist, or other qualified eye care professional.

  • Not for occupational clearance: Do not use online results for employment decisions, licensing, certification, aviation, maritime, railway, or other regulated occupational clearance unless your employer, examiner, or regulator explicitly accepts self-administered online screening. Supervised testing with approved equipment is often required.

  • Not for emergencies: If you have sudden vision changes, eye pain, or other urgent symptoms, contact a doctor or emergency services. This site is not an emergency service.

Color vision is complex. Any brief online screening simplifies that complexity. Do not treat session results as a complete or permanent medical record.

Digital screening limitations

How online screening differs from supervised clinical testing and what that means for your results.

Clinical color vision exams use controlled lighting, calibrated equipment, standardized viewing conditions, and professional interpretation. Our tools run on your own screen in everyday environments, which makes them useful for awareness and follow-up questions but not for formal diagnosis on their own.

  • Screen-dependent: Display calibration, brightness, pixel density, ambient lighting, fatigue, and color-altering settings such as night mode or accessibility filters can change how test stimuli appear.

  • Uncontrolled conditions: Unlike a clinical setting, we cannot verify room lighting, viewing distance, monitor quality, or whether browser extensions alter colors during a session.

  • Session results only: The site does not require an account to take tests. Results are shown during your session and are not stored as a personal health record. Do not rely on the site to archive results for medical, school, or employment documentation.

  • Screening, not certification: Digital results may suggest possible color vision differences, but they do not replace supervised testing with approved equipment for occupational licensing, hiring, or regulatory compliance.

If results seem inconsistent, retake a test in stable lighting with night mode and color filters turned off. For more guidance, see Results and medical use in the FAQs.

Responsible use

When to use the site responsibly, and when to seek in-person care.

  • Consult a professional: Always see a licensed optometrist or ophthalmologist for formal evaluation, diagnosis, treatment decisions, and occupational clearance when results are unexpected or symptoms change.

  • Not for emergencies: BlindnessTest.com is for educational screening and awareness. If you need urgent care, contact your doctor or local emergency services.

  • Children and classrooms: Younger users should take screening with a parent, guardian, or educator. Results for children should be discussed with a qualified eye care professional before drawing conclusions in classroom or home settings.

  • Employers and educators: Use the site to teach or demonstrate screening concepts only when you explain that online results are not clinical diagnoses. Do not present the site as a certified clinical instrument without checking your organization's policy and applicable regulations.

Screening copy and disclaimers are written using established clinical references. A named medical review panel is not published on the site yet. See the About page for operator information.

Test-specific disclaimers

Limitations that apply to each screening tool, including how the digital version differs from its clinical counterpart.

Color Blind Test

The Color Blind Test scores red, green, and blue cone channels separately using adaptive cone isolation plates in your browser. It may suggest protan, deutan, tritan, or normal color vision when the pattern is clear, along with Mild, Moderate, or Strong screening bands on the weakest channel.

Unlike a clinical workup that may combine multiple validated instruments under controlled conditions, this module summarizes patterns quickly on your uncalibrated display and cannot confirm a diagnosis on its own. Set brightness to 100% and turn off color filters before testing for the most consistent scores.

Do not use results from this test as a definitive diagnosis of color blindness.

Ishihara Test

The Ishihara Test supports preliminary red-green color vision screening using digital plate presentations inspired by classic Ishihara methodology.

Clinical Ishihara testing uses validated printed plates under standardized viewing distance and illumination. Screen rendering, compression, and uncontrolled ambient light can change how plates appear online.

Treat Ishihara-style results as a general indication, not a definitive diagnosis.

Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test

The Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test evaluates subtle hue discrimination through a digital arrangement task for educational purposes.

Clinical FM100 testing uses physical color caps arranged under controlled lighting with supervised scoring. Online hue steps depend on your display's color reproduction and cannot replicate instrument-grade cap standards.

Use this test to understand general color discrimination ability, not for clinical certification.

Anomaloscope Test

The Anomaloscope Test offers a digital color-matching experience inspired by Rayleigh anomaloscopy for red-green deficiency awareness.

Clinical anomaloscopy uses dedicated instrument optics to measure matching ranges quantitatively. A browser simulation cannot reproduce the same optical mixing or calibration used in professional diagnosis.

Treat anomaloscope-style results as a screening aid, not a clinical measurement.

Cambridge Color Test

The Cambridge Color Test provides rapid threshold-style screening for color vision differences in an educational context.

Clinical Cambridge Color Test procedures rely on calibrated display setups and formal threshold protocols. Our browser version is a simplified screening aid, not a laboratory-grade threshold measurement.

Treat Cambridge-style results as a screening aid, not a laboratory-grade threshold measurement.

Farnsworth Lantern Test

The Farnsworth Lantern Test illustrates signal-light recognition concepts used in aviation, maritime, and railway screening contexts. Clinical FALANT uses white signal lights; this site uses yellow on screen per common online simulators.

Occupational licensing typically requires proctored testing with approved lantern devices under regulated conditions. FAA initial pilot color certification (2025 onward) does not accept virtual FALANT. A screen-based simulation cannot substitute for regulator-approved occupational exams.

For official occupational testing or certification, consult a certified professional.
