This is actually two tests in one. It also tested my patience a little.
But I scored perfectly, so I guess I'm not colorblind.
I've realized for years though that my left eye throughputs slightly warmer tones than my right. Or maybe that is just some post-processing in the cortex or some point beyond?

My hearing is horrible. Too much loud music without ear plugs. I would caution any young musician to buy a pair of custom molded ear plugs, I wish I had. My hearing is fine if what I'm listening to is all the noise in the room. But when in a loud setting, the sounds tend to get muddied together.
6 is a great score though, I think your eyes are compensating for your hearing!

Sorry about the lack of coverage, that sucks. I'm not to the point of needing hearing aids, but unfortunately I see that in my future. My hope is that by the time this arrives, the technology has advanced.... as has my ability to afford such amenities.

Yup. Ins will help with the office visits, but not the actual hardware which is the largest part of the expense. I support the ACA as being a step in the right direction for the US, but it's not immediately going to help me with my particular problem here.

I got a 14. However, this is noticeably harder on my wife's MacBook than on my work PC. I am going to try again with the PC tomorrow.
It also makes me realize how much I dislike the touchpad compared to a mouse. So many times it thought I wanted to open a print/save menu...

Ha. I got a 4 on my work PC. What up now, sounds_sound?
I think this test might also be a test of your monitor.

Well done! Yeah, I looked at my monitor at all types of angles to get my score. I wonder if a retina display would've helped? I love that, after you submit, they show a color bar and point out where you're weakest - as if you could see it in the first place.

I got a 44. Lower numbers are better. It said I was pretty much in the middle, for my age range and sex.

you scored perfectly? Dude, my eyes are screwed up. I scored a 38. Maybe it's time I had them checked out?
Though I'm a little worried about the results, it was a fun test.

Better then my 62, though I've known my eyes were never really that great for a while now.

62? You better make sure you're not wearing brown socks on your wedding day ;-)
Unless you're sporting a brown tuxedo. You must be inching towards 10 days by now, right?

My fiancee of course picked out my outfit for the wedding, so no worries there. If only it was 10 days. 19 today, living at the new place with the internet down. Thank god for EVDO.

19 days! Did you have your "stag" yet? How did it go?

Rest up pal. If it's anything like mine then you're in for a doosy of a hangover.

From what I recall 0 was perfect acuity and 99 was low acuity. It gave some other stats too but I'll be damned if I'm going to retake the test to cite them. Took me a while to score my horrible 38.
Some people have had some shocking reevaluations because of a lack of site and a misperception of "hue"
–
Lol. Well, hmm. That's a pretty terrible score. I don't know why I'm laughing at my keyboard. I think it's because I'm trying to come up with some way to spin it positively and I'm just coming up way short.
I'm sure it's of no consequence whatsoever and will never come into play. There.

Sure, laugh at my misfortune. I'll never know the true color of my daughters eyes. Laugh.
