I really like the blue, it’s really clear and I also do not need an appointment with the optician. Many thanks.😊

As a member of the colourblind fraternity, yes! I have an app now that I can point at something and it will tell me what colour it is. Essential when doing wiring on my own and I can't ask for a second opinon. :lol:
Of course I know what a dipstick is, you get called something often enough you look it up!

You seem to have partial colourblindness. There are two sets of green blobs. The ones making up the 1 shape are quite green, but the remaining ones, are subtly more of an olivey green, and change it to a 4 as outlined, but only for people with full colour vision. Apparently something similar happens with the 7 where people with red-green colour blindness see it as a 2, but I can't convince myself how that works.
