Free online color blind test

A quick, private Ishihara-style screening you can take right in your browser. It runs on your device, gives an instant result, and never uploads anything.

Important: this is a screening tool, not a medical diagnosis. For a clinical assessment, see an eye-care professional.

What the test checks

Red-green deficiencies (deuteranomaly and protanomaly) are the most common. The plates are designed so numbers stand out - or disappear - depending on how you perceive color.

How to take it

Use a normal screen at normal brightness, in neutral light, with any night-shift or color filters turned off. Read each plate at a glance rather than straining, and take the test a couple of times - a consistent result is the most trustworthy one.

After the test

Satura can also simulate what different types of color vision look like, and apply filters that make confusable colors easier to tell apart.

Frequently asked questions

Is the color blind test free?
Yes. The screening is completely free, with no account and no sign-up. It runs in your browser and works offline once you install Satura.
Is my data private?
Yes. The test runs entirely on your device. Nothing - no answers, no camera, no results - is uploaded to a server.
Is this a medical diagnosis?
No. It is a screening aid only. It can flag a likely red-green deficiency and a rough sense of severity, but for a clinical diagnosis you should see an eye-care professional.
How do I get the most accurate result?
Use a real screen at normal brightness in neutral light, and turn off night-shift, blue-light and dark-mode color filters. Answer plates at a natural glance, and take the test more than once to check the result is consistent.
What types of color blindness does it screen for?
It focuses on red-green deficiencies (deuteranomaly and protanomaly), which are by far the most common. Satura can also simulate protanopia, deuteranopia and tritanopia so you can see how each looks.
