Tetrachromacy is a rare eye condition that allows for increased color vision. We’ll tell you about what causes it and how it’s diagnosed, as well as why you need to be skeptical of online tests.

    This link is very interesting. Interesting for people that are colorblind, and interesting for people that are not.

      That’s fun!! I am not color blind and was able with a lot of work to sort of see some of them. The easiest is the second one just squint and unfocus if you wanna try. The first one I couldn’t get to work at all though

        I am colour blind and the first one was the easiest to see by far. My wife couldn’t make it out even when I showed her where the lines were.
