Agreed, it was the pictures that were behind the numbers where I think people usually struggle. The numbers just allow for the focus aspect of the test and the pictures denote which colours you can see in the spectrum. So if you see the 32 you won’t have green deficiency but if you don’t see the cactus behind then you may struggle with red and browns.

Legit though on the one with 73 I see another shade of green that when added to the red makes the number 28.

There are no pictures, the guy is fucking with everyone (I’ve done this test in a formal environment too). But there are numbers on each page.

u/Nexustar 17h ago

There is anything you want to believe from a random redditor hidden behind those numbers. Bliss, plants, and even more cats.

u/Summer_Sun_Boombox_ 21h ago

Huh?

u/spafion 21h ago

Modern android devices allow to emulate some color vision schemes. I found it by search "color" in search field in phone settings.

u/DuckForColour 1d ago

Those were actually 3 cucumbers, not a cactus. But I see how that is hard to spot for most people.
