    I got an 8, not bad for an old fart.

    As an eye doctor I can tell you that this type of test is normally pretty accurate, but it could vary a lot depending on your monitor. Usually it is administered using actual color chips and must be done under a special "daylight" light source. 3% of men have some degree of genetic color deficiency, only 1 in 3,000 women are affected. Age, cataracts, macular degeneration, and other eye diseases can cause acquired color vision loss later in life. Any change in color perception should be evaluated by an eye doctor.

    Wearing anaglyph glasses (the red/blue kind for stereo viewing) can also apparently mess with it. I tried to take the test at work, but the aftereffects of using the glasses made it very difficult. I've scored 0 on it before, but I had an 18 this time. Maybe I should try it with one eye closed.

    I'm surprised actually. When I was 18 I was jumped by a guy after a night out and he managed to land a kick right in my eye and ever since then that eye has been worse and colours are subtly different when viewed individually.
