Well, seeing as I'm colour blind I didn't expect much.

I actually have really good eye sight, when reading the letters at the opticians. Just those pesky colours...

Not bad I suppose.
 
Well, my eyes were fine. Now all I can see is afterimages of bloody green and orange bars.

I didn't want to get a low result anyway. :yaoming:

No surprise I took me quite a while to pass the Ishihara color test when trying to get my driver's license.
 
Scored a 4. Expected much worse.

As a note, I was quite substantially short-sighted, but had laser eye surgery a few years back.

I was actually surprised. It looked fine, but some of the colors were so close to each other that I was unable to be 100% sure if they were right. Turns out they were :p
 
I scored 0. :dopey:

Was actually very surprised. Could have sworn I was completely wrong on the second bar.
 
I got a 33, and I'm 14, w/no glasses. From what I saw, I didn't expect that low, but the graph at least didn't look too bad. I have noticed before though that one of my eyes seems to see slightly darker than another and vice versa but the difference is hardly there unless I've simply got either one open.

My eyes do hurt a bit now though. :lol:

I see that the two color bars in the middle messed me up. Great for a person who is near sighted and wears some pretty powerful glasses to make up for it. I remember letting my friend try my glasses and he saw a wall close up from 50ft away! The green and the orange hues confused me since my eyes tried to focus on one color.
 
I got a 7, I was fussing over some them, and got impatient.
 
I had a go. Got 957. I couldn't move any of the squares on my iPad so I just clicked 'Done' :lol:
 
Zero. Perfect color vision. It was actually pretty easy, not sure why. Now I get to feel better about my eyes, because my vision itself is getting pretty bad.

My actual sight leaves a lot to be desired though.

Not bad, I was going for perfect, but 4 is the 4th best thing. ha

I got 35, that's about 2/5th down the bar for my age rating. I'm pretty happy with that.
 
I got 18. I think it would be slightly better with my laptop monitor, I'm using an old desktop monitor in the school library. I'd say it's pretty good considering the amount of problems I've had with my eyes over the years.
 
The thing is guys, it doesn't have to do with your prescription. At all. Well unless you are taking your glasses off and your whole monitor is just a blur where you can't see anything. At all.

This is all about color acuity and awareness. Which relates to a different part of the eye than what prescription lenses address. So if you are scoring poorly, it means you have a crap monitor and/or are partial color blind.

Though one could try to argue that the small distance could lead to chromatic aberration from focusing errors... but I don't think it would be a large deal.

It seems to be largely monitor-based. I got twice the score on this crappy 17" laptop screen than I did on my 22" PS3 screen. With a properly calibrated screen, I'd get an even lower score (not that it could go much lower), possibly a zero.

lol o come on Mac monitor and working with color everyday. Time to do the test

English. And what does a Mac monitor have to do with anything? Oh, and might as well take the test then post. lol o come on.

Likely. The difference between a cheap TFT panel and a quality one is clear, and then you can have E-IPS and IPS. CRTs should do decently well, provided they haven't had to deal with magnets or other failings.

Quite curious how AMOLED would make this look, given its tendency to excessively saturate colors and overly vibrant blues.

Here we go again Mr. Asshole gotta cut everything up. A mac computer doesn't use the same color system as a PC. It is much higher which is why any sort of graphics are done on them. I got a 6 which is pretty good. My eyes are like burning now tho lol

FYI, smart guy, the work space color profile is different, the display is either TFT or IPS, depending on the run of the monitor. It has little to do with the operating system and entirely to do with the hardware. A Windows, Linux, or whatever system plugged into a S-IPS display will show the same colors as a Mac.

The primary reason most people use OS X for design work is due to what they teach in programs. I know plenty of professionals that use Windows all the time. I myself edit photos on Dell Ultrasharps and Win7. Oddly enough, I also scored better than you and I don't even have a spider to do my calibration.
