Ohh I get it, they're both wrong because there is actually no number visible!

I think I can make out a 21 with some squinting.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 11 months ago (3 children)

It’s a 74. But parts of the 4 are a different shade so you see 71 if your color vision is different.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

so you see 71 if your color vision is different.

I have mild Deuteranopia and there is no hint of a 7.

21 or maybe 81.

I see why you would see that for the 7. You’re relying on the brightness of the dot instead of the tint I’m guessing.

I suspect my 5 years old to have some low color blindness, he couldn’t see the numbers in some circles I showed him.

The meme actually uses the exact same image as the wiki page about the tests. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ishihara_test

The number "74" should be clearly visible to viewers with normal color vision. Viewers with red-green color blindness will read it as "21"

So at least I'm seeing what I was supposed to see!

I see a demons's face looking angrily at me, so I'm fine.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

What's 70 + 4?

You: 👺

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

so with your 21, do you actually see a colour difference between the numbers and the circle or is it a brightness difference?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah, the number is in green and the background circles are light brown to beige.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That is absolutely fascinating as I can't see any hints of a 2 or how what I see as 7 becomes a 2.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I think I found the 2. Look at the 7 again and slightly to the right of it. The background dots are colored slightly darker brown compared to the rest of the background. Trying to focus on these brown dots instead of the green 7, you can make out the slightly shifted 2.

Didn't see it until many people here referred to a 2.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I can see it, but only when I look at it real hard, if I just take a glance it’s 71 for me. The different shade that part of the 4 is made of really throws me off for some reason

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

“For some reason”… 👀

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I'm guessing your colorblind.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

So to get this straight, I see the other green but it's like a sludgy brown-lime green as compared to the full on greens. It contrasts so much from the full greens that you actually have to look for it rather them glance.

Is that how it's designed to look? Because if so it's less a test and more a trick. Otherwise I may have learnt something new about myself

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

I don't think that is how it's designed... I see the number instantly.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

You're very close to realizing that you are colorblind.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago

Yeah I'm colorblind but there seems to be a green 21.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I just see a bunch of green and orange dots, with a small amount of tea colored dots. I don't know what the alphanumeric scale is, I do all of my math with my fingers
