Deuteranopia Simulator

live

Simulate deuteranopia and other common color-vision deficiencies. TypeKitty's deuteranopia simulator runs locally in your browser, so you can review colors and images through several color-blindness models.

How to use Deuteranopia Simulator

Check how a colour shifts for users with different colour perception. Check the result before copying or downloading it.

  1. Add your color value

    01

    Enter or choose the color value you want to process with this browser tool.

  2. Adjust the options

    02

    Review the available settings and choose the output that fits your task.

  3. Copy or download

    03

    Inspect the result, then copy or download it without creating an account.

Practical examples

Start with a real input, then adapt it to your task.

Example input

#ff6600 deuteranopia

The browser workflow processes #ff6600 deuteranopia locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

Example input

simulate a PNG locally

The browser workflow processes simulate a PNG locally locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

Example input

color blind simulator

The browser workflow processes color blind simulator locally and produces a result you can inspect before export.

What to know before you start

A simulation is an accessibility aid, not a diagnosis

Deuteranopia changes sensitivity to green light, while protanopia and tritanopia affect different parts of color perception. Matrix-based previews are useful for finding risky combinations, but individual vision and display conditions vary. Treat the result as a design review signal.

Do not rely on color alone

After reviewing a simulated color or image, check whether labels, shapes, patterns, and contrast still communicate the same meaning. Error states, charts, and status indicators should remain understandable even when two colors become difficult to distinguish.
