Steeveeo Posted November 16, 2008 I just went through this neat little eyesight test that quizzes your ability to distinguish hues from one another. http://www.xrite.com/custom_page.aspx?PageID=77 The quiz involves simply arranging the tiles in each line to form as perfect of a gradient as possible. With 0 being "Perfect Eyesight" and 35 being about the average for most adults, how well do you score? And where are you shaky in your vision? I got an 8, having the most trouble in the Red-Oranges and Green-blues. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted November 16, 2008 I know mine's pretty good from official testing, though there's no way I could pass that test on this awful LCD I had to borrow from work. The dark blue of the reply page shifts to light blue as I sit up, and to blue-gray as I lean to the side >_> 0 Share this post Link to post
GreyGhost Posted November 16, 2008 I scored a 4 (damn those mid-greens) - better than expected given the coke-bottle lenses I'm wearing. EDIT - some days I just can't spell. 0 Share this post Link to post

wildweasel Posted November 16, 2008 I scored a 45. Guess I'm not as good as I thought I was... 0 Share this post Link to post
chungy Posted November 16, 2008 I got 20 on that test, though I think it's probably more important that my vision is 20/15 in the normal tests :) 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted November 16, 2008 6. And those unlucky enough to be using a TFT/LCD, better take this test on a good CRT monitor, else what you're really testing is the limits of your monitor, not your vision. For those using glasses: glasses don't add positively to color perception, at most they will alter it and filter out certain hue differences, which becomes more extreme with tinted or smoked glasses. At most you can hope for an unaltered color perception, not an enhancement. 0 Share this post Link to post
[name_withheld] Posted November 16, 2008 I got 23, which seems fairly accurate as I have a hard time distinguishing between shades of the same color. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lich Posted November 16, 2008 I got a 9. The mid greens are real motherfuckers. I'm wondering if I need to recalibrate my monitor gamma now... 0 Share this post Link to post

CodeImp Posted November 16, 2008 0, in 3 minutes or so, piece of cake. Even though I have spent my working time behind a computer for 16 years, my eyes are still perfect (sight also). I don't know why. ...maybe I'm superman and if I concentrate hard enough my eyes can shoot lasers.... :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Lord_Z Posted November 16, 2008 25 - apparently I can't tell the light blues apart very well. 0 Share this post Link to post
DeumReaper Posted November 16, 2008 I got 14. Most of the problems in the pink/orange area and a couple in the blue/green. 0 Share this post Link to post
alexz721 Posted November 16, 2008 27 on a shitty monitor. However, like MikeRS said, I'm happy about having 20/15 vision. 0 Share this post Link to post
Planky Posted November 16, 2008 18. Will have to try it with my CRT at some point. Main trouble I had is that while I could see that two squares where different, I couldn't tell which was lighter/darker 0 Share this post Link to post
John Smith Posted November 16, 2008 0 I got about halfway through, got bored, decided this was stupid, and whipped out DigitalColor Meter. 10 minutes later...perfect. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted November 17, 2008 16. Problems with the mid-greens, and for some reason HUGE problems with one shade of pink. 0 Share this post Link to post
Inferno Posted November 17, 2008 0 I got eyes like a hawk. Took me 5-7 minutes. 0 Share this post Link to post
Fletcher` Posted November 17, 2008 I got a 10 in 4 minutes. Most of the trouble is between yellow and green hues. 0 Share this post Link to post
Csonicgo Posted November 17, 2008 84. I was using 16 bit color. So in real colors I got a 0. yeah. seriously, the "real hues" in teh results were so patterned due to the 16 bit pallete that I'm amazed I didn't outright fail it. 0 Share this post Link to post
Mechadon Posted November 17, 2008 343 with my glasses on. That was pretty damn hard. Each strip looked like it only had 3-4 different shades to me. 0 Share this post Link to post
